Default LOCKUP CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE Code in a standard car

Hey guys, I just put a new PG7 ecu into my 91 SOHC ZC civic, (used to be a 1.5L), works good got a little power out of it, anyways, its running me a code 19 which is the lockup control solenoid valve and in the book it says (automatic trans axle) so why is it blinking that.. the ecu came from a standard car.. apparently. How do I get rid of this code I hate seeing the engine light. Somebody told me cause the engine lights on you loose gas mileage and power...

It seems that the new ECU may actually be from an automatic.

Verify that the ECU is for an automatic transmission. If so, purchase the proper ECU.

How would you actually verify that?

Not sure. Does the unit have any serial number or other information printed on it?

The link below suggests your ECU is for a 1988-1989 acura integra with a manual transmission, so it's unclear why its throwing an AT code. Does this ECU match with your engine and wire harnesses?

I have a SOHC ZC and I was told the PG7 gives a better fuel map for these engine rather than the stock Si one, everything else works mint other than that code, at the wiring fit right in, the ecu case itself wouldn't bolt in so I swapped out the insides of each and it fit.

Wait nvm, the code I gave you was the one that was in the add picture, I just ventured out in the night and got the real one off the ecu itself and its 37820 PG7 A130 and its an auto ecu! Refund.
