If you are using your EX wireharness, just plug both of the wires from the harness into the vtec solinoid and oil pressure switch.

If you're running the JDM P30, you will not need the VTEC pressure switch. Single wire VTEC

pull the power steering sensor off the same car plug it into the pressure sensor and let it hang problem should be solved. It doesnt need to read pressure just needs to close the loop I believe anyway cause thats how it works on mine
