Default VAFC problems!!

We just installed a Apex VAFC in a 99 Si and when we took it out last night to tune it we ran into a problem......We could not get the VTEC to change.....everything worked fine but the VTEC setting......I've heard of people having this problem before but i dont know anyone personally.....anyone know what went wrong???

make sure all the connections are right... then... are u sure ur not changing v-tec? are you hearing the secondaries in the IM... your v-tec stock is 4400 not 5500 where the secondaries are. you actually hear the secondaries on a stock motor not the "v-tec"

sure you have it all wired right? and that there are no loose connections. silver solder and e. tape, or connectors.

go into your monitor section, monitor whatever you want exept add VTo in there somewhere. then take it around for a while if vtec is kicking in it will say ON instead of off.
