ok so b18c in 92 civic hatch auto to 5 speed swap,, but do i need to wire up a neutral safty switch??? the car won't start

 

No, if you don't wire up the clutch safety switch, you can start the car without the clutch being depressed.

 

that mean i have bigger issues on my hands then,, it doesn't even turn over, the lights in the center of the dash go out and thats it,,

 

what wiring did u do?

 

i did auto to manual and had same problem then forgot to set the neutral switch to park postion..... move your neutral switch up to park and move it till you can start car and take key out good luck

 

isnt there a blue box under the dash that u have to mess around with for 92-95 civics...i remember reading on this..

 

yea, gotta connect some wires together to trick the car into thinking it's in park and that will start the car up.

to the op: did you do that part?

theres the box under the center piece where the shifter connected... i just left mine in and move piece to park... mines a 92... i left mine in cause like a theft protection i move to drive and car wont start

 

Now this is pretty easy, but then again i love electrical. But all you need to do is connect 5 wires total. One of the plugs that you disconnected from the auto shifter is a 14P plug. Cut the plug off. Your going to have a 2 thick blk wires and 1 blk/blu wire, Solder those 3 together. Those together lets your car think its in park and releases the key and starts your car. Important

Next there is a yel/red wire and a grn/blk wire. Doesnt matter what way they go they do the same. These are for your reverse lights. Connect some line to them and run it through the firewall to your reverse light switch. And your set.

Sadly i couldnt figure out the Cruise control but i believe because the car thinks its in park to get the key and start it wont allow you cruise control. But if you want to know your Cruise control wire its a pink wire.
