It will still run with the chip in backwards. In limp mode, but it'll run.

TPI set ups have two injector fuses. Check to see if one has blown (INJ1 and INJ2).

Do you not have noid lights to test? You know you can just use a regular 12v automotive light bulb if you dont have a set.

If this is an '89 TPI MAF setup, there is only one injector driver. So if one bank shows a weak ground then it is either the wire or the pin to the ECM harness connector. Or the trace inside the ECM fried.
