ps other pics are up
Ok so i redone all the tests from the manual with the new ignitor, all the voltages are as should be, bat on the 2 terminals of the ignitor, slightly less on the coil end. Tested the dizzy cap for continuity and thats sport on. Same with each of the terminals. Still no spark though :( So im thinking now that its a problem with the connection between the thing spinning inside the dizzy and all 4 of the terminals.
Also, as i have the CRV cluster connected up and running i've put in 2 full cans of petrol, and the level is still below empty. Im thinking if this might be effecting something, like a failsafe. Also, i noticed both clutch and brake pedals have connectors on top, i don't have either connected yet.
Best thing to test at this moment would be to sub in another complete working dizzy, can someone let me know if they have a spare working dizzy lying around or one they can lend me for a day so i can test??

switch on clutch is a safety measure when starting, clutch needs to be pushed in for car to start.
HOWEVER, in saying that my ED (and most likely all of them) have a plastic grommet that deteriorates and falls out over time. So the switch is always "on" when starting the car. So that switch probably hasn't been functional for some time I would say.
what wiring diagrams are you using for connecting all this up?
Hey Mark,
Thanks for this, i will check it out as i couldn't find what the connector clip for the clutch pedal, but remember seeing something in one of the manuals, just seeing if im going crazy though after going through countless websites and what not lol
Currently using a cd i got with ED, EG and EK repair manuals off ebay. They are Honda manuals that have been scanned in as PDF's. And use Peter's thread as a guide as well.
I took that switch out when I did all my wiring, its not really required. If you are still using the ED underdash wiring you can just solder them together, if you're using an EG underdash harness there won't be a plug for the switch as I don't believe EGs have a clutch switch in AUDM models.
You can download those manuals for free from here: http://hondatech.info/downloads/Auto/Manuals/. Or from http://www.spoonertuner.com/manuals
There is an ED6 specific wiring one, I used it when I did my swap as the EF manual I presume you have does have some slight variations from the ED6.
Yeah im converting everything in the car to an EG harness, including the underdash, with a CRV cluster as i got an electric VSS now.
Not sure which ED manual i have, but its ED as the cars are carby, EF is JDM and EFI only, right?
Another slight issue, i had a tarp in the car port covering 1 full side so that the rain doesn't get in. I had weights holding it down, my brother took them out and put a brick there, the stong wind pulled the tarp off and sent the brick through my rear window :(
ps thanks for the links!
