I believe you still reuse your existing diagnostic plug located in your engine bay on teh driverside wiring near your master cylinder/booster resting near the fender; all 88-91 civics/crxs have this plug btw.

ok..did some research.

If your car is 88 or 89 or 88-89, there's a diagnostic plug where I mentioned that you jump in order to check the CEL codes (on the engine wire harness near the driver side fender).

If you have a 90-91 civic then the diagnostic plug is actually located under the passenger side dash, just like 92-00 civics/integra's. Jump the plug and your CEL light should start blinking..

Also, depending who actually makes your OBD0-&gt;OBD1 jumper harness, some of them have the diagnostic plug wiring integrated into the harness and you have to wire a togle switch to the 2 diagnostic wires so that you can flip the switch and check your mil codes.
