To tell the truth I really do not because some connectors and sensors were mess up and now the car will not start up, it has power though out the car. The distributor is okay I guess that what some mechanics say.I just do not know what I did. It is a OBD2 harness. Can you please help me? Thank you for your time.

Something like this will need to be physically looked at and straightened out. Plus scanned with a pro scanner to see if it is a security issue.

Any garage can handle this not only a dealer. You'll have to check where you take it.

Try American auto wire it's will probably be cheaper or get one out of ajunkyard with same engine/model as yours instead of trying to rebuild it.

I also think the engine might be different from the car, does that make any different from the harness?

If engine is a 4 cylinder and as long as connetors will match up it will run as the computer in the car. What this sounds like to me is you picked this up on the cheap hoping to fix the problems to either drive or resell. If you really plan on redoing this harness the easiest way is to put it back in and hook up connectors and see what you are missing etc. Pic shows MOST sensors on engine not all

I've did what you said going to a junkyard and getting the samr set up but still no spark if I got every thing to a external coil and the car was internal coil would that make a difference?
