Man, I can't thank you enough for this video. Im doing a auto2manual swap on my sons 00' Civic and videos such as yours, have been an absolute life/knuckle saver. Thanks again 👊
@@adorno1010 quick question. The two (automatic) transmission lines that go through the radiator are no longer needed correct? Do I just plug both lines? The s40 k4f trans I bought had zero sensors i.e. speed, reverse light. Ive already bought and installed the manual speed sensor but there is no pocket/receptacle on the trans for the reverse lights. Sorry if I'm not making sense.
@@kentuckyblugrass no need to plug the lines and take a look at the other video and I show you where to wire the lights for reverse. if it doesn't have the sensor it's no big deal. you will just have to source one later on th-cam.com/video/b3r3sL4dgyc/w-d-xo.html
I just did it and now my car don’t start. Fuel pump ain’t priming. Don’t know if it’s has any correlation between ignition switch and fuel pump, though it started just fine then took out the cylinder and no start. Btw you don’t even need to remove the ignition switch to take out that cylinder. Just 3 screws that keeps the column cover attached, remove that to reveal the ignition switch and the white cover he’s talking about is right there. Not even a 5 min job
Hey man! I have a 98 civic dx i baught and i dont think the guy did the auto to manual correctly! Anyway i could email you some pictures and see what u think is wrong with it im pullin yhe cylinder tomorrow to pull that pin out but someone said that you have to cross to black wires om the auto shift harness to think that its in park i think i found it but im not sure if ypu think you could help comment back please thanks
Alex henthorne yeah you have to cross the wires i have another video showing where all the wires have to get switched around watch it and see if that answers your questions if not lwt me know
Alex henthorne did you fix this yet I'm doing a auto to manual swap I pulled everything from my auto car and put it in my manual car with a manual trans where is that wire to make it thinks it's in park please help I can't figure it out lol
if you find me on IG @slammed_sedans 9799 , , I followed your whole right up , and even did a walk thru , from watching your videos ....... but I ran into a problem I did my revers lights like you said but still have no reverse lights , ... I'd hit me up .
Charlie Johns check your fuses and light bulbs. besides that the only other two possibilities are a short in the wiring somewhere and the reverse selector switch on the transmission is bad. also make sure you have the right green wire because there's a bunch of them where the auto selector was
Right , I know I used the 2 middle wires of The top of the 2 black wires , and taped every thing else up , it has to be the switch in the trans , .... But on top of it all I blew a head gasket 3 days ago , so now I got to get on that . never stops ..... Hey man honesty your video helped me thru doing my swap to 5 speed , besides I had to find the piston thing under the column and cut out the floor , but you did a good job . ...when I made my videos I add a few things to it .. But honestly thank you
Tommy Keo check all your grounds and make sure if you have a alarm that you re connect everyrhing how it was originally. Also check your fuses this type of work needs to be done with the battery disconnected. Doing it with battery still connected could have blown a fuse or a relay
EJ8 SEDAN no alarm & I had the battery disconnected. When I first tried it check engine & brake light came on like usual but then I tried again no lights came on & it just clicks when turning the key
Tommy Keo sounds like a dead battery or faulty starter try starting it with jumper cables or tapping the starter it that doesn't work try pop starting it also make sure all your grounds are good...valve cover thermostat housing and trans

Yo dawg honestly the best no one out there got anything on tjis
The last thing I needed thank god you uploaded this thank you
no problem
Will that work on a 4th gen prelude?
@@crazylou1696 should be the same for any honda
@ thanks I am going to give it a try thanks for the reply
There is and ezer. Way of doing just splice the wires under the auto shifter
What if I’m having an issue getting the key forward? Any help?
forward? like it won't start?
Can you still use the factory automatic ECU or would you need to get the ECU out of the manual donor car?
I used the auto ecu for about a year before I switched. it will run and drive just not perfectly, and you might get a check engine light

Did you do the wiring mod where the automatic shifter goes?
Jase Yosh yup
I also found out that if you remove the fuse for the ign I think it's a 10 amp fuse. That also allows the key to come out of the ignition
Is this required for all swap? Im doing h22 manual, from single cam auto.
(00 civic coupe)
No it's not required but its the "right way" of doing it

Can you put the link to the other video showing the wiring plz
So which one is manual and which is auto
I explained it all in the first minute and 30 seconds. the one on my lap was the auto one. the one I pulled from the passenger seat was the manual one
