Default h22a swap....are these two parts the same?

I'm having a problem sourcing a bypass control valve solenoid for my swap, I was looking at my air cleaner assembly and saw that the intake control solenoid valve looks almost exactly the same using the same connector. Will I be able to use the accord intake control solenoid valve on the vacuum tank in place of the bypass control valve solenoid for the swap? I'm pretty sure I can find a bunch of those.

They are both vacuum control solenoids. It will work as long as you wire it to A26 and hook up the vacuum lines as per the H22 IAB solenoid.

The only thing that matters is whether or not the solenoids are both normally open or normally closed.

To put it in layman's terms. They are both switches, with no voltage they are ether naturally in an open or closed state. Make sure they are both in the same state without voltage and you are good to go. The IAB solenoid is naturally closed. Put vacuum to the intake solenoid without voltage and see if it allows air to flow through. If it does then it is naturally open and not the same state as the IAB. The EVAP control solenoid would work for IAB control as it is also in a naturally closed position.

I don't have a vacuum pump. If someone can do the procedure and let me know if it'll work, I'd appreciate it.

My pleasure my friend. Let us know how it turns out in the end as far as the swap and what you think about it.
