I just reswapped my sr back into my car, with the original setup, the car runs awesome.

But I dont have a working gaauges anymore. And my dome light no longer works.

The only thing in my gauge cluster that works is my fuel gauge.

Here is what I have done so far. Recheck the connector from the sr harness to the Dash. Ever

According to FR sports It should be http://www.frsport.com/SR20DET....html

With exception that my ka plug does not have a Blue Green wire. It has a blue only wire, and a red white wire. Also the SR harness has a blue only wire. Due to this I originally tired blue and blue with blue green with red white. I tried it this way in a different sr harness, and it worked fine. My harness it suddently does not work.

I have also checked all my fuses. A 20 amp yellow fuse was blown and replaced. The only change is that the battery light lights up dimly.

What should I check next? When it comes to wiring it is by far my weakest link. I can do anything else but wiring. I hate it, and I have a hard time reading a diagram. I do however have a multi meter.

I had this motor on this shell installed previously, it was removed temporarly for a stock ka, then i have swapped it back in.

Edit:

Info about the car its a 1990 hatchback, previously converted to manual, Engine is a fully built blacktop sr20det. When the SR was removed a month ago gauges and interior light worked fine. When I swapped in a dohc ka, the gauge cluster and dome light worked fine. Now I swap my motor back in there, I cannot use turn signals, see what speed im traveling or even rpm information.

Please help.
