OBD-2 Sensor Questions. Help Please
Okay, I need a little help. I was wanting someone to let me know if I am correct in assuming that the IAT for the 96-00 Civics are on the air intake tube rather then the actual intake manifold like they are on the OBD-1 and OBD-0 cars? Also, does anyone have a link on how to convert a 3-wire IAC Valve to a 2-wire? Thanks guys. :dimebag:

Okay, let's talk about the IACV. On the D16y7 motor, the IACV is on the Throttle Body. On the D16y8 motor the IACV is on the back of the intake manifold. This is where you need to do some of your own wiring. Take 2 pieces of wire, and add male connectors to both ends, and female connectors to the other 2 ends.
Hook the female wire ends to the D16y8 IACV. ( Make sure you bend them right to fit on tight ) Now, use the male ends to plug into the D16y7 IACV plug. Be sure to disregard the orange wire, as it will not be needed. Check the diagram included to compare the wires so you know which you will need to hook to what. Honestly, if you can get the D16y8 IACV plug and cut it w/ a few inches of wire on it, that's your best bet. If not, you just gotta play w/ it until you get the wires on correct. You got a 50/50 chance the first time.

Okay, see I tried that and It didn't work for me. But, it was that one IAT sensor that we pulled out of DaBeast's old EH2 the was burned at the tip. I'll have to grab the IAT off of my old intake manifold at Rick's.Kate;59630 wrote:the IAT is located on the y8 intake tube, this is the same problem i had so i just ziptied min in the engine compartment for now and i have no codes and car runs fine. i will check on the iac wiring
