Sounds like a lot of fun doing those conversions. None of them should be especially difficult but watch out for the "stealth switch". I had a friend who had one and got caught with it and got landed in jail for 90 days and a $2,500 fine for having it equipped and using it on the road. I dont...

Ok you have shorted your corner lamp to power somewhere. You need to look at the harness coming out of your corner lamp and trace it back. There are only a few circuits that have power all the time but the battery is right there next to that light. Follow the harness and look for any part of it...

Also the amperage used depends on the resistance i.e. if you have 3ohm total resistance with two 1.5 ohm loads on a 12v circuit you will have 4 amps on the circuit and each load would use 2 amps.

Ok the important things in electrical are Amps(amount of energy), voltage(push of energy, or electrical pressure) and Ohms which is the resistance of the circuit. If you know voltage is 12v and you know that your resistance is 4ohm for example your amperage would be 3amps the formula is Amp=...

Ok so the cap is the same. Is the whole assembly the same? The cap isnt whats bad it the ICM in the dizzy. If I buy the entire assembly for the 00Si will it be the same and just bolt on?

Alright spent a couple hours doing diag last night and think I found the problem. My primary coil is energizing, so I have good ground but its not firing. I took the cap off the dizzy and it was pretty coroded on the points and button but no carbon tracing or cracks. Im pretty sure that I need...

Please also dont use my sketch for a functional diagram I dont know your lights so I just put values in there for reference purpose only 3ohm is not what I would use either. This was only to show you a stepped resistance setup. For a real world example look at a diagram for a blower motor...

if your going that route I would pull my power from the fuse box and find where your switched ignition power comes in. Build your own circuit with a fuse from the switched power circuit(before the fuse on that circuit). then you will have power to your fog lights and switch with the ignition on...

Hey people I am working on a friends car that he did a swap on. This thing will crank and turn over fine but it does not have any spark. I think the distributor is the problem. Is the ignition coil inside the dis on the JDM motor or is it external. I have read that some are internal and I cant...

amperage is determined by the voltage and resistance of the circuit. Crosssing circuits will deffinatly damage stuff. If you have 12V and 6ohm of resistance in the circuit is will be a 2A circuit, if you have 12v and 4ohm of resistance it will push 3A and so on and so on. Using a resistor as was...

Lol wow guy thats tough. What kind of car are you working on and does it still have the original motor and harness? where did you do mods to the harness? You seem to be shorted to power on those other two circuits look at your diagram and see where the brake pedal switch power wire goes close to...

Im with the basics. You still havent said if you have spark and fuel. Those are the best places to start if you are cranking and not starting. If you have fuel and spark then I would take a look at the cam crank sensor. Start with the basics so you dont spend a lot of money on parts you dont need.

I got my almost stock 96 civic to 140, I got my h22a accord just finished this weekend to 130 but it still had plenty to go. I got my 300zx to 150 and quit going cause my radar detector went off. The fastest was when I drove a customers brabus SL65 at work and hit just over 210mph on the...

Sorry but im not sure what a code 19 is. Could you tell me what circuit that code pertains to? Did you check your trans fluid level? Did you check the trans fluid condition for contamination? Has the trans filter ever been changed. There are lots of things that can make the trans shift like...

Im taking this off because I wrote it very late and poorly. I will be editing the entire swap with pictures. Its ALIVE and nice :)

Is it still saying its in drive? Do you have your trans position switch hooked up properly did you check to make sure you didnt have to change any pins or anything. You could have a problem with your position sensor if its saying its in drive.

hmmm the black box, are you talking about your evap purge canister or the IAB? both should be hooked up but niether would make the engine run bad unless you have some open vacuum ports where they are supposed to plug in. If you dont have them plugged into your harness(because they are not...

Sorry but you cant use a manual ecu for an auto the control pins dont work for certain parts. But give me a little more info and ill try to help you. What year and model vehicle is this in? What motor do you have in it? What modifacations if any have you made to the harness? Good Luck

Yea I made the same mistake once. Im actually in the process of puting an h22a into my 96 accord. Good luck getting it taken care of, if your in the S.E. georgia area let me know I could take a look at it.

WOW ok, with a problem as extensive as yours and your apparent knowledge of cars I would highly suggest paying $175-250 to have a professional do it correctly. I dont want to put you down but it will save you tons of trouble, money and time in the long run. If you want to trouble-shoot it...
