God damn wiring angst >:O (obd1 harness pin removal)
 

does anyone know an easy way to get the pins out of an obd1 wiring harness?

I had to hardwire my obd1 harness into my obd0 car because the guy who was going to send me a pm5 for the conversion harness dragged his ass and i have no ecu and have to leave sunday. The motor is a d16z6 and the ecu is a p28.

And of corse a few of the pins are missing from the obd1 harness that NEED to get the car going but I cannot get the ------- pins out of the harness to swap some not-used pins into the holes where i need them!!!!
I found this thread on honda-tech:

but i still cannot get the damn pins out. i managed to get 2 out by accident but that tiny screw driver i was using freaking broke >:( and even then it took me a good 20 minutes of ------- with it to get those out and i'm sure they came out by accident.

also; will the obd1 computer need to be connected to the EGR valve (even though its not connected to anything) to not throw a code? the egr and like 3 major signal wires are missing from the harness and i have like 7 wires left over but i dont want to connect the egr if i dont have to.

finally what about VTEC? if the oil pressure thinger isn't connected will it throw a code or cause the high cam lobes to not engage?
i need to find a plug to connect the oil pressure thing and i figured i'd hardwire the spool silenoid.

those things are bitches to get. If i was you i would go to a junk yard find a Obd-1 car and get a second set of ecu plugs so you can just cut the plug open.

yeah those things are a pain. i say do what 88dx said. much easier on yourself that way. and yes it will throw a check light if vtec and vtec oil pressure isnt hooked up. unless u disable it in the chip using uberdata or some other type of Rom editing program.

yeah about that >:( >:( >:( >:(

i spent all ------- day running around lubbock texas looking for a ------- salvage yard that had any obd0 or obd1 plugs so i wouldnt have to hack up the distro wiring and get the parts to finish the ------- harnes..
WELL....

all i wound up doing was wasting a half tank of gas and get ------- god damn NOTHING from a bunch of fat ------- loser hick cousin ------- douche bag retards that had never heard of honda nor had ANYTHING from 88-95.....
either they were some dumb ------- lazy assholes or west texas bites hard cock (probably both)

so yeah; i'm ------- pissed about that too >:( >:(
no salvage yards around here have anything....

another way u could do it is cut the wires and the njust solder or splice in the new wire...

Re:God damn wiring angst >:O (obd1 harness pin removal)
 

huh? what do you think i've been doing?


the pins where there is NOTHING in the hole is where i need a pin..... there is nothing there to solder too; i need to take out one of my unused pins and put in a hole where it is needed to get the car running; but i can't do that because the ------- pins WILL NOT ------- come out >:(

Are you folding down these on the back of the plug?

I use a mini screwdriver from the front. After a few tries, it gets easier ;)

look through the back with a flashlight, and you be able to see the plastic piece that latches the pin in. Then you'll know what to do with the screwdriver.

yes im folding down the plug

i didnt know it was a plastic clip holding the pin in.

i guess i never looked that closely at the plug; i'll finish up the rest of the wiring today and give her a whirl!
