96 integra GSR check engine codes?
 
The other day i was driving and my check engine light comes on completely random. I need a list of the codes for a 96 gsr with OBD2. Im getting two long flashes & 2 short flashes which means its code 22. Anybody know what this code is or where i can get a list of the codes?
Thanks,
Turbo Pilot

Code 22 = VTEC Oil Pressure Switch defective circuit or unplugged / defective oil pressure switch

The entire code list: http://www.c-speedracing.com/faq/05.html

ahh thanks so my vtec pressure switch is either defective or unplugged. Well if you would happen to know where exactly the switch would be so i could check that would also be nice. I have a feeling it may be deffective who knows. I got 105 grand on my gsr motor, 40k of which were boosting 9lbs so theres obviously some wear & tear on the motor.

Well thanks for your help

You can try taking your VTEC solenoid off and cleaning it out with some fresh oil. Sometimes when the little screen filter in there gets clogged it'll throw a 22.

ok i did some troubleshooting...ie pulled the vtec solenoid plug out & no new codes were thrown. So we can safely assume that you were right about the solenoid. I pulled it and gave it some oil and i put it back in still throwing the code. Now last time i had codes i couldnt remember if i could clear the code myself or had to take it to the dealer to clear the code.

So here is my question for you guys. SHould i go down to the dealer and just buy a new solenoid & gasket & just replace it hoping for the code to go away or am i gonna have to let the dealer clear the code.

Or should i just take it down to the dealer and have them look at it before i do anything else? My car is obviously not under warranty anymore adn another problem is the nearest acura dealership is about 80 miles away. There is a honda dealership down the street ya think they would touch it or just send me away?

Any help you guys send my way is greatly appreciated. I have really not been into racing and messing with my car anymore now that ive been flying planes alot but i still need to get to the airport somehow.

Thanks

You can clear codes yourself by either unplugging the ECU for 15 seconds, disconnecting the battery, or pulling the back-up fuse(under the hood). I would try flushing out your VTEC solenoid again and see if the problem comes back. If you want, Honda should be able to take a look at it for you.
