No response from ECM after engine swap

Hi,
I have just swaped engine and while it were out of the car i took liberty to clean up in the wiring harness.
But When i came to start it, nothing. I have spark but the injectors does not open and the SES light will not come on and i cant logg the ECM via terminal "E".
semes like the ECM is dead.

I took my multimeter to the injector harness and i got 12,7v on both ends in the conector, shortcut somewere or impossible to messure while the other conectors are conected?

What Pins on ecm should have +12V, Gnd and other serial pins i could Ohm check for short cut threw out harness?

Sorry for my English, hope it´s some what clear.

With the key in the RUN position, you need 12V on pins A6, B1 and C16.

Main grounds are A12, D1, D3, D6, D10.


Happy Racing!

Re: ECM Mayhem

Thanks NINÅ,

power suply and ignition suply OK.
Ground OK
Power on D15 D16 (injectors)

Ohm checked the harness and it all checked out just fine, no openings or shortcuts.

Could not see a "pulse-signal" from distributar (put a light-bulb between the B5 wire and ground)

I tried to plug in my laptop but could not get comunication.
It wont even flash DTC´s, not even DTC 12.

How can i check the pick-up unit???

Thanks for all help so far

You can check the pickup coil by
disconnecting the 4 terminal connector at the distributor.

If you then have spark replace the pickup coil.


Happy Racing!
