Vtec doesnt work!

Test Vtec solinoid with power probe & test wiring
Check vehicle speed sensor wiring to ECU
Check engine coolant temp sensor resistance & wiring (2 pin plug - single wire plug is for dash)
Check TPS resistance / output & wiring

If you just got the car maybe try remove the standard air box and replace it with an exposed filter, sometimes with the stock air box you can't hear VTEC engage when in fact it is.... btw i'm assuming your car is running stock air filter

hey mate.yeh the vtec was working it had an engine conversion b16a2 on a eg was working but was playing up sometimes it would work sometimes not and then all of a sudden it doesnt work at all...
