you probaly need the ecu from the 03 cls...

Just try plugging in an 03 cl s ecu.

black_type-s

i have an 03 cl-s ecu but they want 125 to program key so im goin to a mechanic he gonna check oil pressure and vtec switch, if everything seems fine, will program key for 03 cl-s ecu!

typeR

i assure u the fuel cut would come at 4800 on the vtec change over if it were vtec or oil ....ill link a vid of my doing a smokey street run .... if u listen close u will hear the baby fuel cut at 4800 in first....

2 months and no fix??

have you lost your mind yet driving that thing?

i hope u got a next set of wheels or i'd be tearing my hair out.

Just an update... Its not the ecu!! Guessin its the oil pump!!

typeR

u would not get fuel cut at 5800 as u say ...but really 5500 which is the limp mode park/neutral fuel cut parameter ... it would happen at 4800 when the car would try to change to the high lift high duratation part of the cam

so ur saying u still havent tested the vtec solenoid?

I still think it is the ECU, because last I checked you can still rev an engine if your oil pump goes out, it just won't last very long.

black_type-s

but i've gotten the REAL limp mode and car is tooootally different in limp mode, im talking bout 3000 cut off!!

black_type-s

one of the first things i replaced!! i even checked to see if ecu sent the signal switch and that was fine too!

black_type-s

but i just replaced the ecu today for a 2003 cl... still nothing!

i've read somewhere where oil pressure not enough for vtec but not bad enough to send CEL

it's my last resort, ive tried everything!

solenoid
ecu
manifold

Have you checked your fuel pressure?

typeR

anything oil/vtec is gonna show at exactly 4800keep trying random crap and spend more time and money or find out what it really is and fix it .... can u get me a good vid of sound of engine while displaying its symptoms ? also do u have asccess to a code reader just because theres no CEL doesnt means theres no info there ... the service dept has a device called consult or something to that affect they can see everything going on with that tool

No CELs? I see that your dash is lit up like a christmas tree but I cant see the CEL.

CLaer that CEL first then look on top of your Oil filter theres a plug thats not pluged in unplug it & plug it back in its your oil presure switch its definatley not all the way in .its green .

typeR

its ECU related thats all i got ... get them to ook up the consult...if it were key car wouldnt start .... thats the imobilizer system

black_type-s

i changed ecu into 03...

i change solenoid...

CEL is ONLY emissions (straight pipe)

i unplugged and replugged 'green' oil pressure switch...

its a J32A2 so its for sure a type-s...

like i said, car drives purrrrrfect except for the 5800 part but i dont even race like that, im jus puzzled!

the reason why i was asking you to check the solenoid was to first see if it works. if it did work, then check to see if its getting power when its suppose to. the way you can do that is by tapping a wire into it and run it to a light on your dash so as soon as the ecu gives it signal, that light will turn on too. There could possibly a problem somewhere between the solenoid and the ecu.

what code are you getiing and if want that emisions light gone get the o2 spacer try vibrant or google .but i need to know all the codes your getting

Answered!!!

Bad connection at the switch, mechanic just cleaned connectors and that was it!

nspec_ya4... Good shit, you did mention a connection problem!!!

I just want to thank everyone for trying their best and taking their time into helping me out!!!
