i need to know what to do with the #1 and #2 plugs...like #1 has the plug on uit already but #2 only has the piece on the solenoid i don't have the part that plugs into it.

someone answer me damn it

Re: ok question for vtec solenoid
 

2 is the vtec plug (notice the ground, dont forget to ground it)
1 is pressure, jimmy rig a wire to it

Re: ok question for vtec solenoid
 

i know i have to wire then i was wonderin if i don't have the plugs that plus into them how am i suppose to do it? i mean i can splice the wires from #1 but the number 2 plug in in the soenoid so i can't really splice the wires on it.

I had to wire a buddies once, straight to the ECU then to the solenoid with some flat style female plug connectors

worked fine. popped off one time tho.

Re: ok question for vtec solenoid
 

"flat style female plug connectors" where did u get those from?

oh cool. and i searched here and honda-tech and couldn't find a write up on how to wire up the solenoid. know of anywhere else i can look? this is the only thing holdin the head swap back...

Re: ok question for vtec solenoid
 

your run a vtec wire from ecu to solenoid, also ground it, using the connectors.
run a wire from the pressure sensor, its cake man.

i know the pic sucks but i couldn't find a real one lol...will this work...

if i take the oil pressure sensor/switch and put audio clips on the two nipples inside the sensor/switch and run wire to them will it work? and just ground one and run the other? like this...

^i couldn't find any pics so i made one =) but you see what i mean? if i took the clip and put a wire in it and hooked it to the nipples in the sensor...would i work if i electric taped it so it wouldn't fall off? just for time being...
