1992 Honda accord with a swapped H22A (NEED HELP WITH EXTRA ENGINE HARNESS PLUGS)
What’s up all this is my first post to the Honda tech forums I just received a 1992 Honda accord LX with a swapped h22a.
The motor was already dropped and was running 4 months prior.
they removed the air intake ,throttlebody ,fuel rail battery and a couple other odd little things .
everything is there the only thing that I’m noticing is there seems to be this small section of the wiring harness that is just a bunch of random plugs that have nothing to go on the passenger rear side of the motor.
I’m just wondering if anybody can help me out and let me know if it’s possible that those plugs have nothing to plug into because its a swap or was there something deleted or perhaps the harness need to be modified.
I received the project like this so can’t exactly say what was unplugged from where any help would be greatly appreciate it.

I presume you need the H22A harness, modify the Accord harness, or buy a conversion harness (I am also presuming this is a H22a1 engine) which means you should take a look here for some guidance: https://importnut.net/h22a_swap.htm
Some or all of the plugs are probably for an automatic transmission if the car was previously automatic. It's common to do a 5 speed and H22 swap at the same time. If the car runs well then just tape them off so no moisture gets into them. You can depin and remove them from the harness if you're really worried about as well.
They look like auto trans plugs to me. Especially the green square one.
Running the VIN might help.
Easy way to tell would be to look at the passenger side transmission mount. If the part that's welded to the car has been re-drilled before, it's been manual swapped. Other signs would be if your reverse light switch is wired separately from everything else, under the cowling on the driver's side there may be a random nut or bolt where the clutch pedal has been mounted, or inside the shifter area of the center console there will be a lot of modified wiring.
So it looks like the one plug goes over to the top of the manifold the other two wires that don’t have clothes at the end of them I am almost certain that goes to the coolant temp sensor ,since there’s only two wires .
so now my main thing is just the greenplug and the plug with the blue loom also the plug coming off theHarness near the ABS relay and there seems to be one more plug right at the strut tower
