Started pulling fuses today
I am using a auto volt meter to diagnose the drain
I pulled the courtesy delay unit and inspected it for issues. the circut board looks ok no burn marks or popped resistors.
so I started with the courtesy fuse and checked the bat. it was dropping in charge 11.89, 11.87, 11.89 and so forth within a second it dropped from 11.89 to 11.80
so I left the pulled fuse out and pulled the Theft fuse.... reading 11.78 and holding not dropping in charge. so ive got a short in the security system to start with after ten min i checked the charge and its dropped to 11.71
the drop isnt as fast as it was with the fuse in. I will up date this as I go.
Time to pull some more fuses until i get no drain.
pulled one fuse at at time, replaced fuses after checking for drain. popped the ecm fuse as well the ecm, the ecm is a reman unit Im uncertian if its the correct ecm or the upgraded 84 one. the chips are the only thing that need changed to my understanding.
behind passanger seat under rear compartment ( yes i went looking for spiced wires) their is a set of plug ins for what is unknown to me, one plug in had 3 wires comming off of it but only 1 of the three wires connected the others cut. the only wire remaing was a gray wire. I unplugged the pigtail and watched my amp meter go from 10.56 to 11.22 I believe this is the area I need to figure out what is what and why two of the three wires are no longer attached to pigtail. near the unit the other two wires are attached to a differant pigtail I can see where it was spliced!!!
