idle pulsating problem after motor swap

Post by 97slvrhatch »

the diagram says to plug into d10 and d15 but there is a wire going into d10. do i cut and the splice the 5v wire from the potentiometer to the d10 wire? or is that supposed to be an empty hole because d15 is empty...

I don't think I can explain it any better than what I posted in the link.

The outter 2 pins are going to be +5v reference and ground (does not matter which), while the center pin will be your output feeding back to the ECU pinout.

(Before you hook up the pot's center pin to the ECU, use a multimeter to adjust the output to 2.5v.)

Here are the 96-98 civic & integra ECU pin assignments:
D10: +5v
D15: FTP input
D11: Ground

i understand that i just didnt know if d10 was supposed to have a wire already in it. so i just pull that wire and plug the 5v wire into d10 and just leave the old d10 wire dangling?
