Yea you need to get your ECT fixed... Sounds like the problem is in the wiring but if you ran test wires then I'm just not sure... But, one parameter for VTEC to x-over is to know that your motor is warmed up... If you have or can borrow another PR3 or PW0 ECU try that... I really doubt the problem is in the ECU but if you try those and you still have the same problem then there's only two things it could be... BAD sensor again, or wiring... Good Luck!!
