Default OBDII to OBDI conersion harness (vtec pressure switch question)

Ok so i posted earlier that my vtec was not engaging on my converted ECU...I was told that i could easily fix this by jumping A4 (vtec selenoid) and D6 (vtec pressure switch) to fix the issue...sounded easy enough until i realized there is not wire going to D6 so the harness is infact not wired for a vtec pressure switch but the ECU is looking for it as i get code 22. Is there a simple fix for this or should i just send it back to where i got it from and have them send me a correct one?

I would just exchange the harness for the correct one.

Ok one final question...if you had to guess looking at the diagram inthe link would you say that you are looking at side of the plug that the wires are going into...or would you say you are facing the side of the plug that goes into the ECU?

I wouldn't have to guess.

See each metal pin protruding from the ECU? The diagrams below the photo indicate what each of those pins are. For example, pin A1 wold be the top left pin in the "A" section of the photograph.

I do my best.

Were both the ECU and the harness purchased from Phearable? I'm surprised that you're having difficulty. Everything should obviously be plug-and-play.

Yeah they were. No complaints on thier service , shipping or cost. I am actually quite pleased. Only he is in FL and i am in CA so the time difference makes it difficult to get ahold of him. Other than that he explained how to fix it to me this morning, and well i guess i wasnt paying enough attention or didnt understand which way the plug was facing (you got me straightended out on that). As soon as i tlaked to him this morning and told himthe issue he knew exactly what it was...so after i jump the wires tonight i will report back on how she runs.

thanks again for your help
