Default help!!!

so i have a 95 coupe that i bought from a friend not running for $500. It had low compression in a cylinder so i said f that motor. I had a d15b8 in my backyard. I put it in and i cant get rid of this check engine light.... the stock motor in a 95 dx is the d15b7. my friend has a 94 hatch thats where i got my d15b8 motor from. but he popped a d15b7 in and has no problems... why is this? and why when i hook up a scanner to my car it cant read anything?? please help.

Depend what year ECU you are running and what year is your D15Y8.
I swap out my D15Y8 for D15Y7, I had to convert my O2 wires, and ECU for that year model.

well the IAT sensor may be causeing the O2 code and the IAT sensor is cheaper than the O2 try replacing the IAT first then pull (+) term of battery and pull ecu fuse from under hood fuse box for 30 sec-1 min then check codes again see if they go away
