Default code 19 on a manual transmission? (a/t lock up solenoid valve)

I'm getting a code 19 from my car. Code 19 is the automatic transmission lock up solenoid valve. I just got this ecu so would a automatic ecu do this to my manual transmission civic? Please let me know thanks.

answer: yes the automatic trans computer will not only make your check engine light come one but i believe that the air/fuel curve is slightly different that that off the manual transmission one, and to add to that i also believe u have like 500 less rpm on the rev limiter. so not only is the check engine light gonna kick but u also lose power and gas mileage, and if your in california it might hurt a lil bit, good luck. by the way your car will still run fine, just not to its potential.

not to mention, if you have a vtec motor, it will not engage due to the CEL.
so get the right ecu.

Yeah I just finished converting it to manual. Only thing I noticed was that when I floored it my A/F ratio on my plx goes to mid 15's then a second or two later it goes to low to mid 13's. Does converting auto to manual do this or is it just my lower compression vitaras?
