Default What the hell is a code 2 on my b16a1?

I just finished my swap of a b16a1 into a dx crx. the car runs well, and its decently fast, but if you drive it for more than half an hour the check engine light comes on.... i pull the carpet back, and it blinks twice... so its a code two...

i shut the car off, and it goes away until i drive for another half hour.
i reset the ecu, and it still does it.. any ideas? i have never heard of a code two

use the top right search function...this has been covoered numerous times... try searching for "ecu codes" obd0 ECU codes, nonobd ecu codes make sure u do an archived search and not a recent search. that search function is your friend. if i knew what code 2 was by heart i would tell you but im not gonna search for you because your totally capeable of doin it urself.

1 or 2 is oxygen content..
go here: http://www.acute.f9.co.uk/crx/...s.htm
download the vtec supplement..{plenty of info there}

Also read this: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=404493&page=1
There are two pages,read both,Read "Camshafts" input.. and make sure the O2 sensor wiring is right..
It is very common to connect them backwards..I did...

camshaft says
On the Si harness the single oxygen sensor is round white in color goes to pin C16
no problems

PR3, PW0
C16 is for oxygen sensor A which is green and oval
C8 is for oxygen sensor B with is round and white

So if you just hook the round oxygen sensor to your stock round plug and then
run a second wire to C8 then YOU DID IT WRONG

Because that means you just took Sensor A connected it to C8 and Sensor B to C16 which is wrong..
