cel #10 -Intake Air Temperature (IAT sensor)...is that the sensor that goes into the intake?
because i have a short ram intake and after finding out this was a code i looked at my sensors and there is one sensor that goes into my intake and that one sensor has a loose wire
cel #14 -Idle Air Control (IAC valve) ... is this the map sensor? or that chunk of metal under my throttle body lol i dont think i quite know how to fix this one yet
and last but not least cel #41 - Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2s) Heater
is that the sensor that connects into the catalytic converter? because i currently dont have one hooked up at all...as in no exhaust (trying to get this car back on the road)

ok so i did a lot of research and a little bit of looking over my car and there are two sensors that arent plugged in...one is the idle control valve and the other is on my intake manifold which i guess is my temperature one...
the bad thing is i dont see any harness anywhere to plug in...so i will probably be going to honda to buy the harness connectors and then splicing into the corresponding wires...but im not sure which color wires to splice into...anyone have any in-sight that might help?

ok so i called honda today and i actually cant buy just a sensor plug...i have to buy the whole harness which will run me about $830
so i was thinking...if i go to a junk yard and get the right sensor plugs that i need and splice into the right wires...will that work?
i have been studying wiring diagrams to figure out exactly which wires

a whole harness is a lot of money though and i wouldnt be able to pull the whole harness off at a junkyard...im just hoping that splicing into the right wires will work...im guessing i should splice into the right colored wires as close to the ecu as possible?

ok so i got a couple harnesses from the junkyard and then i started searching for the wires in my engine bay so i could splice into them
the red/yellow and green/black wires for the intake air temperature were already being used by a sensor in my short ram intake and im pretty sure the intake air temp sensor is on the actual manifold....should i move the wires and get rid of the sensor on my intake?
also i was reading in my manual that orange, black/blue, and black/yellow are the 3 wires used for the idle control valve on an auto tranny but my tranny is a manual now. Only black/blue and black/yellow are used on a manual tranny but im confused because the clip with the 3 wires is already plugged into something thats below my throttle body. My IACV is still unplugged...should i just unplug that one clip and use the two wires i need for the IACV
