Default Missing Plug?

Ok, if you read my thread on my problem w/ pulsing idle, again its here
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1098063

Now i seem to have a different problem. When i was checkin my vacuum tubes to see if they were all connected properly, i found a random unplugged plug. I dont know where it goes!!! I dont have my camera handy so ill have to describe it for nwo, and pics later. Its coming off the same cable that another plug is on that goes to the TB (TPS?). The plug its a female, round, 3 holes and above the middle plug hole is a big rectangle fitter hole. Any ideas? ill try to have pics up soon. Please help as i think this may be the cause of many of my problems

Is the plug round? with 2 pins back near the TB area? if so it plugs into your idle air control valve.

its not 2 pins, the iacv plug is the one that is pluged in. The TPS plug branches off the cable that this one is on. It looks identical to the TPS plug


EDIT: It is EXACTLY Identical to the MAP sensor on top of the TB, but there is another plug coming from near the battery pluged into the TB. When i plug this one (from back of TB) into the MAP it gives me a CEL, though the idle is lower when i start. When i have the cable from near the battery pluged into the MAP, i get no CEL. any suggestions?

the only one i can think of would be your TPS senor... are u throwing any CEL's at all? that is the only thing i can think about.

Unless honda messed up and gave u 2 plugs for map sensor's lol ive seen that one before.

I have No CEL's. Where does the MAP sensor plug usually come from? the one pluged into my map comes from the chassis side near the battery, whereas this one is right w/ the TPS sensor by the TB

come on guys, i really need some help here. I've been having High (3-3.5k) cold start idle's and now its pulsing for no reason. I believe it may be linked to this random plug, b/c all of my vacuum lines are not leaking, any help would be REALLY appreciated. Pics will come as soon as possible, read above for description
