    Default obd2 > obd1 wiring a dizzy

    I'm using the obd2 wiring harnesss that came with my 2k civic ex, and using it to run obd1 LS ..

    will i have to re-wire the dizzy wires?
    Or is there a better way in doing so?
    And as for the alternator can i use teh obd2 Dseries alternator?
    Or will that have to be re-wired also?

    was wondering, if i was to get a obd2 LS dizzy and use my 99 EK wiring harness i dont have to re-wire the dizzy ? right or wrong?

    well??


    and as for the alternator i'm using the LS obd1 alternator and using my obd2 wiring harness, can i re-wire the alternator harness and replace it with the ls harness?? and it looks like it's color coded so it should just be color to color right??

    yes theres a better way....

    rywire sells an adapter that youplug the ckf sensor in and the dizzy plug in..... plag and play

    for the alternator you just gotta swap plugs..... obd2 to obd1...... easy

    depin em, the colors are no the same but its the same spot

    the thick blue wire and black one are seperate from obd1 as obd2 is 1 clip

    i have gutted and rewired some dizzy's before so the proper housing had all sensors and bolts lining up to the head. look at a wiring diagram as i did and you should be able to do it cheaply. the alt i dont know that one but im sure there is a way around it.
