hey all i have a B16A2 in a EG, just changed the whole interior loom. All electrics and clustor work but for some reason vtec isnt kicking in? I know if vtec isnt working the engine light would flick on? but i dont see the light.
can any one help or have ideas? im guessing it might be engine loom wiring, but i didint mess around with it.
is the solenoid plugged in?
is the engine warm etc?
oil level appropriate?
yeah warmed up the enigne everything looks pluged in and oil is fresh.
from memory the ECU checks for the following things before vtec will engage:
Engine temp
Oil pressure
Wheel speed above 35km/h
yeah had a look again no luck. any one know any place i could bring my car in brisbane for someone to check it out? I heard someone in rocklea does some hondas but not 100% sure.
if the interior harness is from a vti would you still need to run wires from the solinoid to the ecu?
ummm might be a long shot but, clutch?
wat does the clutch have to do with vtec engaging?
about the wheel speed.. if im in N, and pump the gas, i still get that vtec'y sound after 4.8k on my h22z, felt like the wheels were loosing grip too :P is that rite, or is it something elseQuote:
