This happend with an H22 swap I helped do, to be honest I dont remember exactly how we did it, but I know its possible to somehow fix the cel.

 

 

I knew there was a way.

 

but see i have the switch
is it still ok to bypass it?

You can. It's only there for a preventative measure to only engage VTEC if there's enough oil pressure.

If you have the switch, why not hook it up ? Am I understanding this correctly, you have it, but your throwing a code cause its not hooked up, and you want to get rid of it ?

Just hook it up.

 

its hooked up the swtich is good and my oil pressure is fine??
but it still throws the code ???

 

then it sounds like you have some issues with the wiring somewhere.

 

have you bypassed the switch? my car doesnt have vtec pressure switch and it engages vtec flawlessly

 

so im guessing its unneeded

 

bump
waht happens if vtec engages and theres not enouff oil pressure?

 

CEL light..car just immediately backs off (as if you slammed on the brakes, the whole car jolts)..and if you try to accelerate passed 5500 the car will do the same thing.

happened to me a week and half ago. just reset ECU by unplugging the battery and your on your way.

EDIT: not sure what CEL it is either cause it doesnt blink it just stays on...i reset the ECU, put 4 qts of oil and it didnt happen again.

 

Hi.

First off code 4 is not related to the VTPS. Code 22 is.
Code 4 = CKP sensor (crank position sensor)

check it out here:

The CKP sensor is in the dizzy. I suggest trying a different distributor.

Dude Check your Oil More offten and you might not need to put in 4 Qts of oil to get in back to full.

Um, its a sign, your engine won't rev that high or engage vtec cause you have an issue. Don't half *** the job, hook the sensor up the correct way and make use of the sensor itself.
