Bobby- Code 21 VTEC solenoid means the CPU is lighting the VTEC +12V line 
which is a green/yellow strip wire off the VTEC solenoid (the inch-long brown 
can at the corner of the motor.  There's a connector at the base of the 
solenoid that sends signal back to the ECU to confirm the VTEC solenoid is 
engaging (pressure sensor).  The solenoids can and do go bad, so here's how to 
test:

Find the green/yellow strip wire coming off the VTEC solenoid, disconnect at 
the junction, run a piece of wire from the VTEC wire to the positive terminal 
of your battery and you should hear a definite click sound.  If it doesn't 
click, the solenoid's frozen/bad which would explain both codes 21 & 22.

(pair of Raxles) 
done thanks to all of you but now im having another problem. I drove my CRX 
for the first
time today with the B16 in it. I have a PW0 ECU and i am getting a check 
engine light. The
engine light only comes on when VTEC should be engaging. I checked the ECU for 
codes and
cames up with 2, 21, 22. I did a little of researching and correct me if im 
wrong but the
codes are for the secondary o2 sensor, VTEC solenoid, and the VTEC pressure 
sensor. Any
idea's on where to begin looking? Any suggestions are apprieciated. I dont 
even know where
to begin looking.
