Default Vtec light ECU wiring....

I have a 98 Civic EX and I attempted to do a vtec light awhile back and failed... lol.

Well, I'm trying to make is work now. Supposedly the vtec wire connected to the ECU is green w/yellow stripe. I tapped into that wire, and the LED comes on when the ignition is on, and is off at all other times. It doesn't come on when vtec kicks in. Any suggestions? I've also heard it could be a orange wire w/white stripe. Is there a nice diagram of the ECU wiring and colors?

I thought the yellow with green stripe was the fuel pump...

Even in the link you sent me he said that the yellow with green stripe is the fuel pump, and the green with yellow stripe is vtec.
