Default Idle Air Control Problem

i have a 2000 Civic SI..

i am throwing a Check engine light, and i got acura to scan the code, and there saying its the idle air control valve..so my buddy had one from his JDM b16 botor and it bolted up, but will it work completely? is there a wiring difference internally?

jus wondering because i put it on, and i got the code cleared, and the next day the same code has came on...
