it works when i ground the wire that goes to the ecu, but when i try and plug it into the ecu pin it does nothing, and yes its the right ecu. Im gonna try my brothers ecu from his usdm gsr and see if it does anything.

I just swapped a gsr motor into my car and was wondering where you plug in the IAB wires. I believe one goes to a ground and the other goes to the ecu? Sorry for robbin your thread.

if its the gsr wiring harness it should have the plug. the wire that gets grounded by the ecu pin, is a pink wire that is in the harness on the driver side engine compartment. That is for an obd1 harness and motor, since i would assume you put in an obd11 motor it may be different.

And I'm assuming the other wire gets put to a 12v source. I heard that if you use and obd2 ecu one wire goes to a ground and the other to the ecu, but if you are usinga OBD1 ecu one wire goes to a 12v source and the other to the ecu. Is this correct? And what pin does it plug into?

on an obd1 ecu its A17 which would make it a negative switch. Im running with the sec. closed right now, and all i did was ground the wire going to the ecu.
Which motor did you get?

so that would be an obd11 motor with an obd1 ecu and obd11 harness. If that is correct have fun getting that to work.
My first expirience with a swap involved a 99 b16 motor from a 99 Si (obd11), obd 1 car 94 civic, obd1 wiring harness for motor from a gsr, and a obd1 ecu.
After recieving some shotty info on that setup from this site, we ended up selling the whole pile of shit and starting fresh, keeping the obd1 motor with the obd1 car.
Its a nightmare, because the obd11 sensors on the motor cant be read by the obd1 ecu. Unless you recieved some new, decent, information, good luck!!
