Default Help with VSS issue (relates to B16)... Please

Here's the story: I installed an ITR dash in my crx with an electronic gauge cluster, which uses an electronic signal to show the speed. Well as we all know the CRX has a cable speedo. So what I did was hook up an electronic VSS up to the speedo cable and wired the electronic VSS up to the gauge cluster and it works fine. But my ECU throws a code (for VSS), don't really care right now but i am getting a b16 installed and with this problem it won't be able to activate the VTEC. Please help me out.. no idea what to do..

Thanx guys

You need to run a wire from the VSS to the ECU. The original VSS wire (Its called a Speed Pulser on the 4Gs and its part of the cluster) runs from the cluster to the ECU. Now you need to run a wire from the VSS on the tranny to the ECU.

Did you just bolt in an ITR cluster? Did it go in OK, or did you have to fab lots to get it to fit?
