Evo 9 mivec swap engine in a Evo 8 FQ320 ACD lights on

Evo 9 mivec swap engine in a Evo 8 FQ320 .

I killed my engine once again Rod / block!

Purchased a used ix engine with full loom engine and car loom.

Needed to buy a ix ECU as my GEMS Didn't run the mivec.

Also had to buy a gearbox harness (3 plug)

the ix engine is in the car and running with the ix engine loom.

the problem we have is now the ACD lights are always on.

the car has been at an Evo specialists for well over 5 months now and we still cant work it out. work on the car is at a standstill I need to get this sorted or i am thinking that i am going to end up breaking this car for parts.


after installing the ix engine loom into the car we have two yellow plugs which are left unconnected could this be the cause?

any help or advice would be appreciated.

here is a picture of the yellow plugs

srs? ayc? relays ecu's?

The ACD/AYC ECU is right next to his hand plugged in. Those ones I have no idea off hand. Checked the wiring diagram?

Check the ACD fluid level and bleed it.
