Default HELP!! Check Engine Light Stays on constantly!!

alright, here we go:
I was throwing a code 6 and a 36 (I know, doesnt exist, but it really did throw a 36) anyways, spent all day fixing the code 6, now when I turn the key, the batt light stays on, I hear the main relay and fuel pump kick in, I have spark, I have flooded my cylinders, but they are dry now. what gives? all fuses are OK. I rechecked my powers and grounds on my wiring, check the ICM, all the dist wires, everything SEEMS ok.. so what should I be looking for other than tearing the whole harness out and starting over?

BTW: this is a 96 dx hatch, with OBD2 to OBD1 harness, p13 (JDM) ecu, H22a

please help!

um, this helped me once:

unplug the battery for at least 10 minutes...

(unless you already have tried "the master reset")

what was the code 6 - what did you fix?

code 6 was the ECT, engine coolant temp, I thought it was on the radiator hose neck behind the engine, turns out its on the head, under the distributor.. so I learned soemthing there.. I will try that.. if that doesnt work, I'm gonna rip the WHOLE DAMN THING OUT and spend the day rewiring and double checking..

thanks!
