Okay, here is the deal. My friend bought this car from this guy that did the swap. The guy that did it has no experiance with cars, and he has done all kinds of sh*t to this one. The car is a 1990 Accord. It came with the h23 and auto. The guy that owned it put a h22 in it with a 95 prelude vtec computer. He said that the harness is from a 95 accord I think. The car runs, but throws codes for the o2 sensor, and vss. I am going to post some pics. Tell me what you think that I should do to fix it. New harness? Call hasport? Well here are the pics. Thanks for any suggestions.

wish i could help but i don't know very much about that either. doubt the code is for the O2 sensor since he's got an OBD1 i think. it was '96 when they switched to OBD2 right? and i'm pretty sure the accord ex came with the f22a4 in '90. the h23 was a prelude only motor. two very different motors. the 4th gen accord did have one engine option that utilized DOHC but it was a 2.0 and only available in japan.

hey how much did your friend pay for that car? swap is pretty swet for 90 accord only if was done right yeah if he don want it hit meeh up

 

Well, the swap is kind of right.... The mechanical stuff is in there correctly, but as I said the electrical is not happy. He paid $3000 for the car, a bunch of tools and this

 

sweet deal.....buh anyway i can have the last one? im in love witht that lude engine *drewl*

 

I'll let you hump it if you want.... But I am not going to give it to you.

 

is the vss harness and o2 harness pluged in?

 

holy crap man. it looks like that car is gonna need some serious cleaning......better becareful of something lurking in there......it is gonna cost you a lot to get that car into shape..... nice motor though

 

Correct

 

Is that a catalytic converter at the end of that header? If it is, its not OBDI.

 

Is it just me or is that 4G Accord painted sage green?

 

I have visually inspected everything, and it is all plugged in.

 

well, there must be a crossed pin/wire somewhere...

as complex as electrical problems are they always have simple solutions

 

The o2 sensor is at the rear of the header, near the cat. There is no cat in the pics that I posted.

The car is some silly sparkly blue color. If you guys need more pics to help me figure this out tell me.

 

The guy that did the swap went and cut alot of stuff up on the harness. I would really like to know what kind of harness to get to fix this. I can get the wiring harness for less then $100.

 

get another 90 accord harness. then you will have to add 2 vtec wires if it is an h22. you will also have to add a knock sensor wire. you will need the wiring diagram of the ecu and harness also. its pretty easy. i would just get a new 90 harness.

 

it sure as hell does....that aint fair...homeslice better paint it or ill paint it for him...sage green is only for 5g's

 

haha It's not green!!! hahaha It is some sparkly blue color.

 

ok im glad we got that cleared up...now we can move on with bidness...any updates or anything?

 

yup get the pinout of the ecu...

 

Blah... Wayyy too much work, the guy that did the swap really mangled the harness... I would like to know which one I should put in there. Someone said another 90... Any suggestions / comments are appreciated.

 

hell......pure hell.

 

Well I know that it isn't that much work... But I am not getting paid for it. That accord is an ornimate in my shop. I am just trying to do the research for my friend that owns it. I personally don't care what happens to it. The car sucks.
