I HAVE A 93 CIVIC EX WAS AUTO AND I JUST PUT A 96 GSR AND IT DONT WANNA TURN ON. WUT CAN I DO

 

Have U checked all your grounds and what ECU are u running

 

YEAH IM NOT GETTING ANY POWER TO THE STARTER

 

IM RUNNING THE GSR ECU JUST REMEMBER THE CAR WAS AUTO

 

recheck power and maybe starter bad?

 

HOW COULD I CHECK IF MY STARTER IS BAD

 

Take caps lock off, then run a power wire straight to it, hotwire it.

 

a wire from were to were

 

A hot wire straight from your battery to your starter and see if it turns over.

 

oh yea, and make sure to check all of your fuses too.

 

Check everything around the starter even the small plug which i always forget to plug in

 

At your old auto shifter connection,big white plug,you need to jump the two big wht/blk and red/blk wire. Right now even though you have a 5 speed ECU,the car thinks its in gear. Cut the two wires and splice together. Problem solved. Reverse and cruise control are a whole nother ball of fun.

 

i connected the wire and a didn't do nothing i'm trying to turn it on wit thwe key and won't let me

 

you connected a hot wire straight from the positive side of yur batt. to the positive side of your starter? you shouldnt have to turn the key. It should automatically turn over when you touch it with the hot wire. Make sure its in neutral.

 

how can i wire up the reverse light

Does the car crank over?

What do you mean that "it wont let you"? The key doesnt turn or the car still doesnt start?
What Ecu are you running? Spark, Fuel pressure?

 

ok the car starts fine now all i need is how to connect the reverse light

 

is your reverse light wired up correctly to your fuse box? or is it not wired up at all?

 

if the car is ex i dont' have to wire the v-tec

 

it not connected at all

What was the fix? Other people may be having similar issues.

Now reverse,you need to find the wires that activated reverse from your big white plug that was attached to the shift selector. Take each wire and run through the firewall to the reverse wires on the transmission. Basically you are bypassing the selector and adding a switch.

Does the key come out of the ignition? The interlock needs to be grounded.

 

i need info on how to connect the reverse light

 

yea the key comes right out
