Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
ECM Ground Circuits
ECM is located underneath top of passenger-side carpet (behind glove box) and is mounted to floor panel. Measure resistance between engine (ground) and specified terminals at ECM connector. See ECM GROUND CIRCUITS table. If resistance is more than one ohm, repair ground circuit. If resistance is one ohm or less, ground circuit is okay (ECM may be faulty).
| Application Type | ECM Connector (1) | (1) ECM Terminals No. (Wire Color) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ECM Ground Circuits | "B" | (2) 69 (Brown) | ||||
| " | "B" | (2) 79 & 80 (White/Black) | ||||
