Default Yellow Jacket help

I am big time frustrated. It was easier removing the diff for the gear install than doing the install for the Yellow Jacket. I cannot even get it to power up. There is no yellow blue wire coming from the C101 connector to get 5v power. Is there any other power source to tap into? I need some help here. I tried the YB wire at two other locations and no luck.

Maybe the yellow box itself is defective?

I dunno I have an e-mail into Modifry for some input. Man I hate it when stuff doesn't work. If I hook up everything back to stock what happens am I putting on mileage faster.

Can you update the title please? Change Yellow Box to read "Yellow Jacket"

Thanks

I didn't think that the Yellow Jacket would work on an 06 due to the DBW and different PCM. Unless one came out recently.

Quick update - I'm working with Swiftoy to get his YJ working. Up till this past weekend I didn't have installation instructions for the '06 cars, having never been "intimate" with one of the new models. I put together some "best guess" instructions for Swiftoy but didn't have any photos to give him so he's kind of winging it.

But on Sunday I did an install for a local owner and verified the YJ works fine on the new cars, it's just harder to install because of the wiring changes. Now that I've installed it myself I can understand Swiftoy's frustration - Honda has done nice things like change wire colors when a wire goes through a connector. That's always good for a few extra *&#%<@!! when you're crammed up under the dash.

I'll hopefully have "official" instructions for the '06 in a week or so and will post them on the web site.
