OH MY GOD

someone please help me with this thing
if you've installed an S-AFC on an Integra IM, email or reply to this with which wires go where. I got the manual and all but it doesn't say anything about the wire colors in my car, only the ones for the S-AFC. I have tried to figure out which wires go where by looking in my Haynes manual and trying to figure out which wire is which. Didn't work, i've tried 20 combinations and it wont come on.

The unit did not power up so i think it just might be the power wire. If someone can tell me what color this wire is that has installed one of these, or can just look in the manual at the diagram, and tell me what one it is, that'd prolly work. Also it generates an error code #3, which is manifold pressure. But i'm assuming sense the unit requires the manifold pressure wire to be ran through it, and it wont turn on, this problem will be solved when i get it powered up.

and no shops in the area know how or even what i'm talking about.

dude, where the fuk you at in Va? If you are even close by Va Beach, come visit me and I'll hook that biatch up in 30 minutes tops..... Is your ECU stock or modified?

Here:

Find the diagram H-2a and bounce that off the main diagram. H2a will only tell you which pin. It will not tell you which one should be tapped or cut/connect. The only wire that should be cut and connected is the MAP signal.

All OBD1 wiring clips should be the same..... Goodluck:cool:

so all the others should just be stuck into the ECU? and the wires that used to go there don't go in anymore? damn... do i solder the wires right to the pin on the ECU?

i live right under richmond and i actually would come see u but i gotta work today. i know i'm dumb... i'm sorry... ;(

Dude, you are crazy soldering the wires to the pins man. I will never recommend that. Solder it to the wire that leads to the ECU clip next time. If you read the manual, there are 2 grounds that must be tapped closer to the ECU than the other. This proves that you are suppose to tap on the wire, not the ecu pins.....
