help with ecm power
i just put a rebuilt motor in my 91 trans-am and now the ecm has no power... at first i thought it was the alarm because it went off when i first connected the battery and i never had a remote for it. but now i completely removed it and its still the same thing. i found out that there is 2 orange wires going into the ecm that are suppose to have constant power and they dont... so i jumpered straight from the battery to one of them and it turned on and everything worked... any idea where those wires get power from or where they go? or a diagram or anything will help.
