ok i went through the steps to check all components for this code all wiring is good and i've swapped for a known good ecu and still problem persists, it only comes on after 15 minutes at highway speeds 75-80, under that no problems, i need to figure out what else i could do to remedy this problem.....

try swapping the solenoid and check the oil level

 

ok, ive looked for that part and it goes by another name because vtec solenoid valve isnt sold at any auto parts store, i know what part it is and ive checked all the circuits, all came back good, ive followed the steps in the factory repair manual for troubleshooting, and if all steps prove good it doesnt say to swap a good part...is there any other part that can give me this symptom, oil level is good, maybe low oil pressure

 

if your oil pressure sensor on the vtec soleniod was bad you would get another code.
I dont think you can just buy one at an autoparts store. If you want one new you might have to go to honda. It goes by "spool valve"

Do you have vtec?

 

yes i have vtec

 

well if you have vtec then you shouldnt be throwin a code for it. try reseting your ecu
