The loop on my engine harness (pictured below) causes a misfire. If you move it around, you can get it to run correctly/misfire. I have been researching but there's no DIYs on replacing an engine harness. I have a basic diagram from Majestic Honda. There is one connection that branches off the main grouping behind the engine and drops down a couple inches. I can barely wedge my finger behind the engine and firewall to get my finger on it. Does anyone have a tip for this one? Can you leave the old one, cut it, and splice it to the new harness?

Thanks in advance for your help!

 

Bolts to the back of the head just above the vin tag. Its a ground. give me a min and ill get you a picture.

 

sorry for the crappy circle job

 

Thanks. Any ideas on hot to remove the bolt/nut without yanking the engine? Honda seems to be logical in most things, but yanking an engine to replace one ground for a harness seems beyond stupid. There has to be a trick...

 

Anyone you know with small hands? lol other than that im not sure. How'd you get it off?

 

That's the replacement harness that's going in. And I feel like this is the hardest part, and I don't get this was necessary. They couldn't have grounded this anywhere else? Literally, anywhere else. Sorry, venting. Thanks for the pic, it gives me a better idea of what I'm up against. I have small hands and will keep trying. In the meantime if anyone else comes up with a solution, please post up.

 

Got it. Thanks Nutterbutter for the pic!
