I am having some problems with my 2.0 n/a.  its a 5-sp manual.  Some days it will be fine and lately its been getting worse.  I am getting codes 11 and 12, even though there doesnt seem to be a code 12 in the manual, using the CEL flash method.  Either while driving or sometimes at idle the car will just start to frantically putter and will not allow it accelerate. this is proving to be pretty problematic while driving and I need to figure it out.  I have been getting ground problems recently where I have lost ground to my blinkers, horn, and I think my radiator fan after a minor accident.  I am thinking it would most likely either be from just a bad sensor, a sensor getting no ground, or maybe the car beeing a little out of timing.  If anyone has any ideas please let me know.  Also if anyone else has pulled a code 11 or 12 in the past that would help also.

Thanks!!

dont really need a mechanic, given my current ground situation, I am pretty sure I can figure it out.  The only thing is, inorder to do so I need wiring diagrams.  if someone could help me out with those I would appreciate it.

sorry to bother again, i rigged the horn and blinkers so i dont really care about those, but I am getting some serious problems with the car now to where it will just putter at idle and while you are driving it will just not respond to the throttle and will just putter along unless you red line it and drop the clutch to get it going.  this is becoming a serious problem when I am pulling out to make a turn and I have NO acceleration at all.    I am getting codes 11 and 12 from what i can count on my CEL blinker test.  I dont know if maybe one of the sensors is not getting a ground as well just like the horn, blinkers, and fans.  Or if anyone has anyother ideas I could really use some help

any luck?

well I dont know how they are arranged but basically all I need to is to trace the ground wire for the blinkers, horn, and radiator fan back to their source...  thats the best I can describe it but anything can help.. I appreciate your effort good to meet people like you..  Thanks..

oh and its a 95

sweet, thanks man, its the 4cyl manual 2.0

im talking about on the horn itself, it has a power and a ground going to it, just like any other electric part on the car.  I temporarily fixed the blinkers and horn by just tapping a new wire connected to a nearby ground.  The horn though is busted so I have to  go grab a new one..  But I believe the fans are still not working so I still need to get my ground problem fixed.. Does like the Haynes manuals not have wiring diagrams in them??  Like  I said I dont have access to anything so Im hoping someone might be able to help in locating the grounds..

anybody.............

thats weird, mine definitely has 2, mine is a '95 2.0, Either way, yeah I can try doing that but  all of the wires go into the giant wire bundles after only like 5 inches, so to track them would be rather difficult...  If thats what it comes to I guess I can do it..  I can always just cut the wires and ground them myself...    Thanks for the help though..... If anyone else happens to have access to a wiring diagram that would be great if you could chime in....  I can dream cant I   

I know that one is power and the other is ground, what I was saying is that I am getting power from the power wire, but its not getting ground through the ground wire... So I am asking where the ground wires for the blinkers ultimately come from as in where are they getting their ground from (which screw or whatever)....  If the horn gets its ground from the mound then why is there 2 wires going to it??  If i could get a wiring diagram I could figure it out, I  just dont have access to one right now...

Ok so I did some testing, and as far as the blinkers go, they are receiving power like they are supposed to, however they are not getting any ground... Does anyone know where the ground is for the Front blinkers and maybe even the horn and fans.??  The car starts and the rear blinkers work so I am assuming they have their own ground somwhere... Thanks

Hey guys, its been a while since ive posted, but recently I got into like a fender bender type thing and it smooshed up my front bumper on the passenger side, either way, I took everything (removed basically everything from the front of the car) apart got everything somewhat back the way it should be and put it all back together.... car started up fine, ran fine, but now I am noticing that the front blinkers dont work and neither does the horn.  The bulbs are fine and I checked the fuses and they looked fine as well.. the back blinkers work and there is only one blinker fuse that I know of..  I can hear the little horn relay going off when I press the button but no horn... Im just wondering if there is something I am missing or do I need to do a lot of wiring research... Thanks ahead of time...

yeah i was reading something like that, but most places sell the whole kit (key and switch) and some just sell the switch, they only ask you about auto/manual when you want the whole kit and they dont ask you anything when you just want the switch so i am assuming its the same switch for everyone?

according to the picture on the website the ignition switch is the electrical piece behind the key cylinder that i used to turn the car on with a screwdriver, it has a little notch in it that turns with the key
