Ohh snap sorry didnt see that you replaced that. Did you check all your fuses? one time I had a civic that wouldnt start because the srs fuse was out. I know 88-91 dont have srs but another fuse could keep it from doing that. and was the car running before? what have you done to it recently?

Well i'd say srs fuse but that don't sound right. It happend on a obd-1 car of mine. But since you don't have it i'm assuming not. Are you sure you wired up it right for the gsr. Because I think gsr wiring and b16 wiring might be off a lil I'm not 100% on that thought.

i have seen you post ***** so much its not even funny srs Supplemental Restraint System is the airbag system which was no where near standard for our cars please leave things that our far of from topic.

code 0 i know that this is for oem wiring harness but you will need this along with obd1 code 0 diagnostic tree and a little bit of home work

I'm not a post *****. I think you are. Did you not read he checked all the fuses and everything. His car ran before. I'm thinking if some how the gsr had some weird stuff or he swaped over the whole wiring harness from a obd-1 car if that was the case then yes. I've also been thinking on this. So your getting power to everything else but these items. You stated you checked your grounds check again. Is the ecu grounded?

So I finally got around to the conclusion that i dont get power to my ecu. So I hooked it strait up to the 12v battery thermal. pins A13 and A15 i believe? But anyways. Now im getting power to the ecu. but Still i dont hear fuel priming. I get CEL codes now, but it has nothing to do with my the fuel. the codes are 6, 10, & 13. So can anyone chime in? Im so close to selling off the shell.
