Default OBD1 H22 into OBD2 Accord Wiring Help

Alright guys, so far i'm pretty much done with the auto to manual conversion and the engine swap mechanically speaking. I'm still struggling with the wiring. Apparently there's not many people who've dont an OBD1 h22 in OBD2 accord before or i just haven't searched hard enough.

I've looked at diagrams and wired it accordingly, i'm using the accord harness w/ the engine....i drive a 96 LX so i have an external coil also....the car is cranking but i dont think there's a spark. My CEL light doesn't even come on when i turn my key to the on position. I pretty much stumped as to where to go from here. I may or may not have a bad ground....and I may or may not have done the wiring right...does anybody have experience with this?

Any H22 specialists out there?

You don't have spark, or you think you don't have spark?

oh, i gotya, go turn the key to on, and hit the starter to +, then the screwdriver gets stuck on the block and makes sparks, and you get all scared, and then your friend's mom thinks you are trying to blow up his house... wait..
anyways, h22s are fun good luck bro.

alright...update...The CEL still does not come on, the fuel pump isn't priming and i have no spark. also i already tried swapping out main relays. I've tried both my accord lx ecu and my p13 ecu, and still nothing. i also checked the grounds.

The CEL now works, the fuel pump is priming but now its throwing code 15 which is the Ignition Output signal. The car still's doesn't spark, the wiring seems to be correct but what would make it throw that signal?

I redid the wiring for the dizzy and still no spark....the CEL works, throwing cod 10 and 21 which is IAC and Vtec. The fuel pump is priming...so i'm assumiing i got all the grounds....I swapped ignition coils just to verify that it wasn't the ignition coil and the two wires, yellow and blk/yellow, are getting a signal...i tested em....

so now i'm left with basically....the dizzy is still not sparking even after i rechecked and rewired everything....i'm stumped...bad dizzy maybe?

To be honest you would find a lot better info in the accord forum.... There are thousands of people with H22's in Accords... The hybrid forum is mostly people building LS/VTECs, or people swapping motors into hatches...

So how did you do the dizzy wiring? I thought that an obd2 accord will have a sensor on the crank that an obd1 h22 has in the distributor so you will have to extend that wire all the way from the oil pump/crank gear area all the way to the dizzy and wire it in correctly... But I could be wrong...
