It is original harness from honda accord. I changed the sensor over from the original motor also thinking maybe the one on the swap was bad, same problem. I don't have a volt meter right now, this is my only mode of transportation so I'm limited to how far I can go. How would I start checking...

Problem - with the key in II (on) position and engine off, the temp gauge max out at hot, CEL VSA /!\ light stays on, it stays the same when I start the engine, lights on and temp gauge still maxed out at hot.
