Ok, I just swapped a running Sr20 out of a manual hatch into a automatic coupe.I turn the key, fuel pump primes dash all comes on.

I go to start the car, I hear replay click under dash but nothing happens.

I jumped the While and black/yellow wire.Turned key to start same thing relay under dash clicks but nothing happens.

I transplanted the engine and trans out of the manual car. So the engine harness and transmission harness where still on the engine.I just put it in the automatic car and plugged everything in.

I am confused as to why it won't start even after I jumped the white and black/yellow wires.

If anyone can help me i beg you, I need the car running by tomorrow afternoon.

Pre thanks

This motor was running before you swapped it?

Yeah, I just pulled it out of the hatch with all the wiring attached. Threw it in the coupe and hooked it all up.

I noticed that the plug that comes off of the trans harness that has all the speed sensors and stuff doesn't have a place to plug in to? Anyone know if that is suppose to plug into the second plug on the side of the relay box by the battery.

The plug pops into the fuse box area. Poke around a little more. You'll find it.

NVM it was the inhibitor switch, there is two plugs and they both look the same, one goes to Inhb. and other to trans harness.

That plug doesnt exist on auto car side, had to cut up the autotrans harness and the old manual car harness to make a connecter jumper harness.
