Hi, I recently acquired a 1997 Honda Accord SE w/ the 4 cylinder F22B2. I've been fixing up a few things on it but currently ran into a snag and wondering if anyone might be able to point me in the right direction. None of the accessories running off the front right side main wiring harness work. No headlights, signal lights, horn, etc. I noticed that there were some exposed wires under the hood and I'm assuming they also had a tire blowout and tore up the harness. I went to the junkyard and pulled a 1997 Honda Accord right engine compartment wiring harness but I'm not able to get the brown connector behind the glovebox to match up. Are there different variations or am I missing something here, I checked 5 different 94-97 accords of different models/engine etc and they all had the same plug which doesn't match the one in the car. Hopefully the pictures will help junkyard car #1 junkyard car #2 junkyard car #3 junkyard car #4 97 accord right engine compartment wiring harness from junkyard cut up harness on the car, any idea why its orange? cut up harness on the car, any idea why its orange? connector behind glovebox on car connector behind glove box on car #2
The right side engine compartment wire harness that connects to the right side dash and floor harness have different Connector C210 (brown connectors) for an SE.
SE has a 12-P Connector C210.
Non-SE has a 14-P Connector C210.
Update on this: I wasn't able to find much online about this so thought I would provide some info incase it helps anyone else in the future.
I didn't have any luck locally, or on FB Marketplace having an individual willing to ship it to me, luckily I came across https://www.beaverscarsalvage.com/ . They specialize in Honda/Acura and knew exactly what I needed it and got it out to me in a few days.
Here are some photo of the differences between the 12p and 14p C210 Connector, the one I ordered online (SE Model) vs the one pulled from junkyard accord (LX/DX etc).
