Default Well, Bought Another Pressure Switch, Still No VTEC!

Well, I just recently bought another pressure switch (was time for one anyway) and I noticed I was still having the same CEL's. So I called a friend (Shayne from Lakeland) and asked him WTF was up. He said take out the hazard light fuse to reset the ECU, so I did, and no CEL!!!. So I take the car around the block (mind you, I have everything hooked up but the knock sensor, at operating temperature and all) and I get to 5500, no VTEC!!!!
WTF do I do now?

My question is the actual connection to that tab, like how the heck am I going to feed it into the connector plug that I have when it doesn't have one? It's the same as the Rywire sub harness but my solenoid doesn't have a connector on it. Just that wire hanging from it... I've checked your site multiple times, maybe I'm just not going to the right area...

you may need to buy a new sensor because that one is pretty FUBARed!!

I know the sensor is, I posted that.... I'm talking about the solenoid.. Look closely at the picture again of the wire coming off the solenoid, if I have to, I'll get a closer pic for you

You have no connectors for your solenoid or vtec pressure switch. Simply directly wire it or get a plug from a bad solenoid etc...
