how do you know if your vtec is operating/not operating, do you have an indicator? If you are throwing a code, which one?

We don't hear it/feel it and the other problem tho is the range switch

Range switch is an easy fix, $130 if I remember and like 3 10mm bolts and your done.

Generally a code is thrown when the vtec isnt activating, if you have the richies harness, it should still throw a CEL, I would consider installing a vtec indicator, it can be built for a few dollars, my VTEC isnt really audible in my accord. First thing i would check is if you could build up sufficient oil pressure, and your vtec solenoid is still good. I will try to post a diagnostic procedure tomorrow.

We're trying to get rid of the range switch

I used to be able to hear it when it was AUTO because of my intake.
We're gonna check that tomorrow but that still leaves the range switch problem. With the module it's not suppose to be connected and be able to turn on and were not able to turn on without it

I did the swap and removed the range switch. Need to hook up a switch for starter or wire the clutch switch to ground and jump the neutral wire. But I had to depin the neutral wire at the ecu or when I would shift everytime I hit the clutch it would throw all the lights on
