Ok....a lil bit about my situation....I have a 91 ex coupe and a 94 vtec Prelude. I would say I'm about half way through the swap, my 1st attempt at a swap of any kind. The cpe was an auto, now it's not! From all I've gathered about the wiring to mate these 2, it seems as though it's relatively simple when you have both cars.
However, all the info that I've been able to find is on how to wire up the vtec, nobody says anything about the few extra plugs on the h22 that don't have a mate in the bay of the cpe.
1st....there's a 2pin molex with @ 10awg wires, 1 is blk/wht, the other blk/yellow. I'm guessing 1 is for the starter, the other being ign for the alternator?
Oh just fyi, I spent 20 yrs in the car audio and electronics industry as a tech/fabricator/installer as well as several yrs working the service dept at honda dealerships, so my knowledge comes from a lifetime in and around the car industry with an emphasis/love for Hondas, so that's the summary of my skill set.
2nd....there's a 4pin molex in which 2 of the wires go to the ecm the 2nd biggest plug (b is it?) A wht to pin 9 and a red/blue to pin 20 n then a org/wht and a brn/blk that went someplace else in the prelude.
I extracted the plugs and all the wires that went through the firewall from the Prelude so that I had the ecm plugs intact to all the plugs that were under the hood so that I could walk it over to the cpe in the name of comparison.
3rdly.....there's a 10pin plug that has 6 wires that go to the ecm and 4the that went elsewhere in the Prelude...a red/wht, a green/blk, a wht/yellow, & a yellow. The others a pink one to pin a17 i think (the big plug), pin 8a of the lil plug got a red/grn, n then the others went to the med plug, pin10 a yellow/lt blue, pin 8 a red/yellow, a lt blue in pin 17.
I think that info is accurate, n then of course there's the grn/yellow one for the vtec.... now in the bay of the cpe theres also a 14pin molex on the drivets side with no mate as well as the one that was for the automatic on the pass side.
I wish I still had access to the factory Honda tech manuals like I did back in the day, but I don't, all I have is a stupid fricken Chiltons for 84-95 accord/prelude n even a beginner like ne knows what a joke that is.
And to add to my adversity I'm doing all this from my android, much help needed and all is appreciated.....Thanx!
