Choke...

Does the wire for the electric choke come from the ECM, or the
main harness? I know removal of the ECM would cause the SES
Light to illuminate, but would the choke light come on too?...

Re: Choke...

The choke is entirely independent of the ECM.

In reality, the light labelled Choke is actually the Alternator light. Nothing that happens to the ECM affects it.
