Hey so..its a D16a.(sohc zc) OBD-1, in a 91 crx Ive had a solid cel forever! So I decided to pop in a new ecu..i got a new P28 and popped it in..my problem is still the same. Its wired for a 4wire o2 sensor and that isnt working out either..so its a minor wiring issue. Well ive had it up to here with trying to find this problem. Anyone ever dealt with something similar and would be willing to lend a hand? I live in newtown PA--like 40 mins from philly--for a case or 2 of whatever beer you want haha. thanks

 

Free beer? I'll try to find sometime and give you a hand

 

haha yes, free beer. I just need someone who knows the wiring--when it comes to mechanical stuff--im fine (I had a 69 mustang, I dont understand wires haha) So yea whoever would be willing Id be super gratefull--just pm me!

+1
I havn't done more then a dizzy on a Honda in ages I'm itchy to play with them again.

 

haha well your welcome to let me know whenever--just make sure and let me know whatever beer you want lol

 

i have a solid cel for my o2 censor heater wire or something like that on my d15b obd1 if i lived closer i would for sure do it for some beer

 

good luck man. wish i could help

 

haha thanks guys! most people just solve the solid cel with a change of ecu--thats why im so vexed!

 

ok my rate just went up--Ill give you 2 cases of beer if you can help me fix my problem! Solid Cel, new ecu (possibly a short somewhere) and I would think the only code that needs to be cleared is the o2 sensor and I have to figure out what is what on my o2 sensor harness (purple, yellow, brown gray)? ok thanks!

 

lean on loserkidwac my hours are wack as hell and I suck at the wiring

He's a cool guy send him a PM... unless you can wait I'll be happy to lend a hand.

 

Will do! Thanks!

 

i'll lend ya a hand, here

 

what cel are you throwing? is it a vtec code? maybe the fact that your using a p28 (vtec) ecu with a d16a (NON-vtec) engine? when do i get my case of beer

 

well its a D16a which is the sohc zc, so it is vtec. and I cant figure out what code im throwing because even when i jumper the ecu the cel does not blink!

 

well a sohc zc is NOT vtec. what 2 wires are you jumpering. i don't know off hand 2 they are but im sure sombody knows the pin locations, *caugh* ryan *caugh*
and are you jumping them with the ignition on?

They made them with vtec, same as our z6.

 

yep..my motor is just like a D16z6--and yes it is indeed vtec..with just D16A stamped on the block--this engine has been under some debate and its found in like 93-94 jdm civic exs....but yea think d16z6 oh and im jumpering them..then turning on the ignition

well im sorry for my ignorance
anyway, its kinda hard to help you since you know know what code your thorwing. if you can find that out it might be easier, or do you know for sure that it is a o2 sensor code?

 

well I only surmise that its the o2 sensor only because its as of now not even hooked up--buttt even when it is, the solid cel is still there--so im thinking its maybe a short or something because my problem is i cant figure out what code im throwing because of the solid cel (when i jumper, nothing happens)

 

your grounding d4 correct? what jumper harness are you using?

 

i had the same problem and my map was shorting out.

COuldnt you check for continuity from each sensor to body ground, to check for shorts? just wondering .

 

I dont know--i didnt do the obd1 conversion--the plug that i ground out is blue though if that helps? Yes a continuity check would def be the best solution but i have to do some research before i attempt it as I havnt done much wiring before!
