Default VTEC/ sensors?

I was wondering if anyone had a list of all the sensors that would keep VTEC from engaging?

Fot vtec to work, you must have the proper: engine temp (ect sensor), speed (vss), oil level/pressure, map pressure (map sensor), there may be one more im forgetting. Anf of course your spool valve and vtec pressure switch must be working.
