Anyone know where the MAP sensor and the TPS sensor are located on a 1995 civic lx? I have the haynes book but they show where it is located on a civic del sol. Mine is a little different. Im trying to hook up my Venom 400 and I need to know where the MAP and TPS sensors are located. If any of you have a Venom 400 installed please help. I need to know where the orange wire goes as well as where the green one/

the map is on top of ur tb and the tps is on the side of it. the plastic cases says "tps" and "map" on them.

Yeah but the wire colors you posted don't match up. The senor ontop of my Throttle body says MAP and there is one to the left of that one but im not sure if thats the other one.

it only works if ur at full throttle. when it starts to work the led will kick on.

I don't think I did it right then, but I did everything the way it suppose to be I think the LED doesn't work. As for the Venom im not sure I feel the difference. Does your RMPs range higher?

I just hope I connected it right. I did connect them to the middle wires. So the TPS is the one on the throttle body? red/blue or is it on the firewall I hooked it up to the one on the throttle body that is attached to the throttle body to the left.

it is on the tb. it should be on teh middle wires. did u buy the kit used? also it could be fried, cuz if u turn it on and/or off while the car is running u will fry it in a sec.....that might be why the person sold it to u. the led should last forever., but idk
