Hey guys, Newbie to Mazdas but got a great deal on an 2001 protege...but it had a spun bearing..so off to the yard new block and all head tranferred over (used a 626 long block bottom end) installed good to go...low and behold we have several engine codes and 1 3 prong connector by the intake tube that has no home??? All other connections are fine and this isnt my first time doing a motor swap however new to the protege.

list of issues

ABS light and parking brake light on (I know its a sensor I need to check them because I did remove them to do swap.

Flashing o/d off light..researched it still no clue it was fine prior to swap. will check fluid levels and solenoid

3 prong female connector that connects to the harness just below/beside the injector plugs...its oval shape and there is another one exactly like it that goes to the maf sensor on the air box...so I assume thats the reason its running a bit ruff once it warms up...I can send pics tomorrow if need be or upload a you tube video.

Any help would be greatly appreciated....

 

Have your ever thought that if you use things that arent made for the same thing that maybe it wont work??? lol

 

flashing O/D light means tranny not happy. ck and rechk connects to tranny
