[QUOTE="Booyah, post: 34049, member: 307"] [b]UPDATE!!!!!!!![/b] Well I finally took the CPU out to troubleshoot in on my own. Narrowed it down to be the actual CPU itself. I started playing with the CPU and harness while the ignition was on. It kept shorting and would kick on the Anti theft when I vigorously wiggled the CPU. So I checked the harness and nothing was wrong there. Okay, so I figured maybe the bolt that holds the harness end might be grounding it some how. No go. Okay, so I do the wiggle test and it cuts off again. HMMM. where is my hand when I do this? Right over the recalibration chip for the SC.

But then I decide to tape the chip down more securely as to eliminate the problem. And notice that there really isn't any particular direction that makes the connection better or worse. HMMMMM. So I pull the chip out and start putting pressure on the connectors, that connect the chip to the board, on the board. Each time I push down it would short. So now my question to you guys is, does anyone know of a shop that does CPU trouble shooting/repair??? Maybe JDM???? [/QUOTE]
