That ECM is done for, find a replacement, luckily the 165;s are uber common

Now to ID the problem, do a continuity test from the cooked printed path to it's corresponding ECM terminal. Then compare the ECM pin to a wiring pinout. Once you find what it related to you should be able to determine where the short is
