Default crx wiring help

i need the color codes for the wires for the headlights, turn signals, marker lights, bumper lights, horns, windshield washers for 91 crx si

my harness was all f***** up and had pretty much no plugs for any of the lights at all. i got a harness from a 91 hatch dx, but it seems i have more wires in my crx than the hatch had. so now i'm stuck with extra wires and dont know what they go to. so some color codes/and what/where they might go would help alot.

yeah, that's where it came from. And thats kinda what i was thinking it was too. just wanted to make sure. Since i'm not having a/c i guess it wont hurt to leave that out.

you can also get the service manual for your car at hondatech.info. I got mine there today. Is yours the 1.6l?

so, after finding a service manual, and some extensive research/reading on this, i have come to think that this is the radiator fan relay, which works in conjuction with the a/c condenser relay and what not. And from what it looks like to me in the service manual, as long as i'm not running a/c, i really dont need this relay. If anyone that has the service manual would want to help me to confirm this, its on page 16-66

you really should use the radiator fan relay

also, the manual you have is for a U.K. CRX, not a USDM CRX - a lot of things are different between the U.K. cars and the U.S. cars, so be careful when using that manual, especially anything to do with the wiring of USDM DPFI equipped cars, like the CRX DX model - DPFI was not available in the U.K. and therefore, that manual doesn't cover anything regarding DPFI wiring or anything else DPFI

this is the wiring diagram for the radiator fan relay without a/c from the 1990 USDM CRX Factory Electrical Troubleshooting Manual
