Crazy sounding, I KNOW. But here's the thing. When I got the car it had been wire and ecu raped already. (ECU wired for an electronic boost controller and chipped for tuning the current engine) Someone had a different engine with some other stuff going on before the last owner got of it. The previous owner has dropped in a turbo B18B1 with a manual boost controller... The wiring to the coolant temp sensor under the distributor is all jacked up, and some going elsewhere were just hanging around, un loomed and nasty looking. I noticed the temp sensor only had one green/yellow wire going to it, so i decided to get a diagram off the interwebs and try to fix it and the sending unit for the O.E. gauge..Hoping to cure the random idle fluctuations too.. Welp, in the process, I managed to fudge something up and caused the engine light to come on, as well as a very high idle at 21k I may have pulled wires loose in the middle of taping and looming lol. Finally found the jumper to get the code, 6 Coolant Temp, so i know my issue is that wiring mess there. I have the diagrams and pics to correct it, but was wondering if there was some way to bypass the high idle that's associated with the coolant temp sensor and the IAC that has the coolant lines running through it to eliminate my light and high idle.. Any help is highly appreciated
