petty, appreciate the technical info, electricity is not one of my strong suits, and I am always trying to learn. In mechanics or construction I have inevitably come to the point where my limited...

Actually I haven't gotten as far as codes. Turns out my most immediate problem is a short in the ECM "B" circuit somewhere, diagnosed with good old fashioned fuse yanking and a multimeter. I just...

Thanks a truckload man, that really helps me narrow down what I feared would be endless wire chasing. My cheap little 25 buck craftsman multimeter is finally getting some use these days, though, so...

Yeah, the starter is growing on my list of suspects since I just braved the sparks and fireworks to hook it up and see if it would crank. No dice, not even a clicking or buzzing. Still have a shade...
