Checking engine control module (ECM) power supply and ground terminal

Checking engine control module (ECM) power supply and ground terminal

Checking power supply
- Check fuse 11 B/3. If the fuse is blown check the circuit after the fuse for a short-circuit to ground according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault
- Check fuse 11B/1. If the fuse is blown check the circuit after the fuse for a short-circuit to ground according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
- Check power supply to #A70. Voltage should be approximately battery voltage.
- Check power supply to #B11. Voltage should be approximately battery voltage.

Checking ground terminal
- Check ground lead between engine control module (ECM) #A53, #A54, #A63 and right side member ground terminal 31/71 for an open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault
- Check engine control module (ECM) ground terminal for contact resistance and oxidation according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault
Remedy as necessary

Other information
- Connecting the breakout box/accessing the control module, see Connecting the breakout box, B5234T9, B5244T7 Connecting The Breakout Box.
- Power supply to the engine control module (ECM) #A70 is from fuse 11 B/3 via the system relay.
