Ok, I just installed an XSi B16 in my crx and now on to the wiring...alot of the plugs aren't matching up though...took off that harness and put on an ls harness and still plugs aren't matching up...and the ones that aren't matching up are plugs by the fuse box, and like 3 plugs on the driver's side...I was just wondering if I could get a pic of someone's engine bay of the harness by the fuse box and the driver side corner...Thanks

 

are you using your factory non-obd harness? if so it should match up fine

 

Well I bought the car as a shell...It had an OBD0 LS in it before I got it...but nothing seems the be matching up...the round 14 pin plug by the fuse box is the only one that seems to match up..I'm clueless

 

what model crx?
what year crx?

 

89 Si

 

im assuming your using the harness from the integra swap?

so the harness works when its being plugged into the body harness, it just doesnt match up with the motor?

 

So i understand correctly - 89 Si - hacked up wiring worked for a LS motor in that CRX before you bought it. You got the car with no engine, just a wire harness chillin in the engine bay.
You say its OBD0 so you know its all white plugs right? No gray plugs? Gray VTEC sol plug?

Took some pics for you
This is what my VTEC sol looks like with all OBD0 plugs (including the whte VTEC sol plug)

Sorry if I'm not explaining this well it is just hard to explain...The B16 harness that came with the motor doesn't plug into the body harness...and neither does the LS harness I got from a friend....And yes it is obd0..I talked to a friend in town and he said to get an Si harness and that will work fine..just have to wire 02 sensors, vtec, and knock sensor

 

yup get the si harness that shoul workout also make sure you get a 88-89 harness. not sure but I think the plugs are somewhat different on 88-89 and 90-91 not 100% sure on that though.

 

Thanks guys, ya'll have been alot of help! ....Does the year Si harness matter or will any 88-91 crx si harness work?....and if anyone has one I'll buy it asap..and again Thanks

 

anyone else know if the plugs are different from 88-89 and 90-91...need to know asap

 

Ok... Use the harness that matches the car, and buy or make a obd0 vtec sub harness (we sell them at rywire) .

Find out the exact year and model of the car, and find that harness if you dont have one.

PS, what plugs werent matching? the one on the drivers side firewall?

 

I need to know from someone is a 91 Si harness will work...I saw some pics and the 3 main plugs look the same but I don't want to buy another harness and be wrong...and it is really hard to find an 89 harness....car has to be moved soon!
