pr4 2 codes killing me
Luckly after getting my crx running and getting rid of some codes that i've had for awhile there are still 2 codes that i cant seem to find. I have a pr4 ecu by rich tuned motorsports and it keeps showing a code 16 and 9. alot of people have told me that i can fix the code 9 and still drive that car with a code 16 showing but i want to get rid of both of them. Anybody run into this problem befor and if so how did you fix it?
'code 9','code 16', 'pr4' doesn't mean ****.

73 Cylinder 3 Misfire or a Random Misfire a condition is present that is creating a cylinder misfire
74 Cylinder 4 Misfire or a Random Misfire a condition is present that is creating a cylinder misfire
75 Cylinder 5 Misfire or a Random Misfire a condition is present that is creating a cylinder misfire
76 Cylinder 6 Misfire or a Random Misfire a condition is present that is creating a cylinder misfire
80 Exhaust Gas Recirculation insufficient flow detected
86 ECT Sensor (Engine Coolant Temperature) circuit range / performance problem
90 Evaporative Emission Control System leak detected in the fuel tank area
91 Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor low input
92 Evaporative Emission Control System insufficient purge flow
almost everyone reading this post has seen a code 9, there's lots of info if you search. code 16 is not cool, clear the codes and see if that comes back. if it does, check your fuel injector wiring. I'd be surprised if you could drive down the road with a code 16!

I'm beginning to think that code 16 has something to do with the injector resistor box that i rewire or the injectors that i got from the salvage yard might be bad. I'm not sure where to start at with any of the 2 codes. Have you ran into any of these codes or if you were me where would you start at on the car to fix the problem.
well if it's a brand new off the shelf dizzy then check your wiring if you did a DPFI-MPFI swap, other wise take it back and exchange it. also, try using a different ecu
When I modified the harness alittle bit I cut the wires to the green plug that goes into the resistor box. I was wondering on the injector resistor box plug (green plug) it has 4 red/black wires and a yellow/black wire. Does the 4 red/black wired specify which injector it powers?
Trending Topics
yellow/black wire goes into resistor box from ignition, the four red/black wires go from the box to the injectors. if you mixed those up yes you'd see a problem
Since I cut the 4 red/black wires does it matter which injector the wire goes to or is it specifies which wire on the the green plug controls an injector
no the injector grounds are inside the ecu, so they just need the power source. the ecu switches the ground on/off for the injectors as long as those wires are in the correct places in the big cream colored a plug then your fine
yes it does matter which wire goes where, its jus like your plug wires, it runs off timing, if you have a spark in cylinder 1 the cylinder 1 injector needs to spit, if you mix them up then you will have spark in one cylinder and it will spit the fuel in the wrong cylinder and will give you problems, unless sumthing happened to the ecu, there shouldnt be nothin wrong with the tune, rich has tuned many of my friends cars, probably one of the best tuners ive met out there
ummm no the black and reds DO NOT MATTER where they go its the colored wires that matter where they go, thats what times them, the black and red wires do not matter what so ever, ive done this swap man times, i have one outside right now that runs just fine with obd I injectors and no resistor box at all on a pm-6. been running like that for 2 years no problems, as long as the wires running back to the ecu from the injectors are in the correct place the wires coming from the resistor box do not matter
Instead of using a resistor box could I delete it an I did alittle research on a code 16. Is it possible the ect could affect it. Also could running open headers or no air intake cause these codes?

There is a lot of misinformation in this thread
For starters you never said which OBD you were running; let alone which injectors you have. Whether or not you need to run the resistor box or not is dependent on this information.
The Red/Black wires ABSOLUTELY DO NOT MATTER which injectors they go to. They supply the positive power to the injectors. The other wires that get grounded by the ECU do in fact matter (obviously).

Is it possible to delete the resistor box and still have the car run good or would i have to use it? also would a d-series resistor box be different from a b-series one?
