Not normal. There shouldn’t be ANY bare wiring there. Get hold of a wiring diagram and figure out where that very exposed wire is supposed to go and insulate it properly.
Ok thank you. That is what I figured but wanted to be sure. Also if you could answer another question. So my car is a 99 civic d16y8 mt and I have an idle issue. I have traced it to the evap circuit. All manually as well since I have no codes. But I need to check one more sensor but it is the evaporative emission bypass solenoid valve by the tank. Can I get to that without dropping the tank?
Both the FSM and Electrical Troubleshooting Supplemental are available in PDF form around the internet. A simple google search should help you find it, just FYI.
Per my copy of the manual step 1 on page 11-295 is “Remove the fuel tank” for all ’99-’00 models
EDIT: I have ’98 Honda civic just FYI. How I originally found ETCG
Ok so the only sensor that makes any difference in the way the car runs is the vss. When unplugged the car runs completely normal but no Speedo or odometer. Now the sensors that are involved in that circuit before the ecu are vss, both o2 sensors, evap emission control vent shut valve, evap bypass solenoid, evap purge control, vtec pressure switch, and ps pressure switch. Not sure if there are more but from my haynes manual those are what is all connected before the ecu.
I have already replaced the car sensor with a denso sensor and the same result. The wiring to that sensor looks fine as well. Anybody have any advice?
