Here is my story:
The other day I got this bright idea to hook a tach up under the hood. To the wire that is behind the throttle body. Well it didn't go so well. I got sparks and engine cut out. And later that night I was going to run a log on 1st through 3rd. Hooked up the pda had the car warm ready to go. And it don't read shit, 0hz on lower left corner. So I knew I fried the data cable (the little resistors). So now I can't hook up my 2g system yet until I get one of those. Well I have had time to think about it. So I just went out and did a test on error codes. I can say the PDA is good and the data cable is good. It told me I had a common ECU error. I tried to delete the code and it didn't work. So can someone tell me what that means? The Common ECU error. -------------------- Thanks, Bud!

Use the multimeter to check continuity of the wires from end to end, check for proper resistance of the resistor (imagine that), and look at the diode to make sure its in the proper "directon". The arrow should point in the same direction it does in the schematic, yo.
