Cam sensor to buy or borrow

[michael evans]

Have datalogger (all looks good and no codes). Had a couple issues. After I cut and changed three of the five wire to the ECU (and it did not fix it found one bad wire though), I stepped back and rethought it over.

It sounded like a load problem. So instead of using my meter, I got out my old load light that I made in the Air Force.

Although the "M" terminal on the CCCI plug showed 12 volts with my meter, it would not light up my load tester.

I traced the wire to the fuse box (ECM 10 amp fuse).

How does the fuse get it's power ? I am guessing the ignition switch. The diagram I have doe not show it.

Will not having enough power on this wire damage the module ?

I assume you have already seen this but just in case.

I'm not sure if not having enough power will damage the module but I would not think so.

Thanks. I have been through all of the pages

The CCCI and ECM fuse gets power when key is turned on.

It won't damage the module if power is low or intermittent. It just won't run.

So are the fuses not getting power when you turn the key on?

Where are you located?

Any progress?

Found problems at the fuse block power at the fuse but not on the engine side

Make a hot wire kit for the module. Use the one power wire that's working to pull in the relay.

Did just that and the engine will run now.
