5th Gen Prelude Manual with auto harness
What's up guys,
I have a strange story and I know there is a wiz here that can help me.
I toasted my firewall harness somewhere due to a short, so I began the long and arduous process of replacing the burned harnesses.
I have a 97 base, MT with an H23 vtec swap. I couldn't locate a manual firewall harness, so I put an auto harness in there. This is the harness that has the interior fuse panel, etc in it. I basically treated the wiring like an auto to manual swap, following the articles online to get the clutch switch to work.
It cranks now, but for some reason i can't get the ignition to light up.
Could someone tell me what wires to jump to either get fuel to this thing, or get the ignition to fire? Keep in mind all hardware- ecu, etc is all factory 5 speed, just the firewall harness is from an auto.

Auto vs Manual: Automatic Transmissions WILL fail at some point, always pick Manual over Auto regardless. Unless you’re willing to get it fully rebuilt often. Cam Seal: OEM cam seals aren’t very well designed. Very easy to replace when following a guide. You will lose a fair amount of oil when these go bad, in Nox Vidmate VLC my case roughly 20L per fortnight of daily driving.
