  • huge computer/electrical problem need help and lots of it

    Ok let me start from the beginning. About two weeks ago I got my new spoiler on my car to prepare it for paint. Well after I got it hooked up properly and working the ABS Inop came on and hasn't gone off since. At first I thought it had something to do with the resistance in the aftermarket light and what came stock with the car well after checking it with a multimeter I discovered it wan'st the problem, I still think is it causing a problem but thats something else. Well anyways since I work at an auto shop with 4 hightech scanners I figured I could use one of them to figure out what the computer was saying. Well 3 out of the 4 scanners I have are made specificatly for GM cars. Well non of the scanners will communicate with my computer. So I figured I have a fuse out so I check all of them and it turnes out that I had one out. I replace it with a good fuse still won't communicate. So next I pull out the old test light and com to find out that I have absolutly no power to the fuse. Its fuse 16, I blieve, on the I/P fuse pannel inside the car. It is labeled as crank and it is protected with a 3 amp fuse. On the computer we have at my shop it says the fuse is to protect the Diagnostic Energy Reseve Moduel. So I checked all the power lines and ground and still nothing. If any one else has had this problem with their Camaro could you plz give me some input I"m nearly lost and running out of ideas fast. Its for a 94 3.4L V6 Camaro. I"m totaly stumped at this point and need some input on where do go from here.

    hey, check out my posts. I have a 94 3.4l too, and I have found an absence of wiring to be my problem. All you have to do is take the passenger side kick panel off and take a look at the blue connector. Let me know if there is white/blk wire in terminal c on both sides of the connector.

      could you be a lil bit more specific as to whitch connector possibly a pic. I'm seeing a few connectors. There is the one 24 pic connector to a metal box, that is the Diagnostic energy resever moduel. One below that held in by a clip and some other one.

        sure, here's a link to another shoebox picture.

        This is for a z28 but those connectors listed are the same on our cars. The connector I'm talking about is the one listed as c230. I believe it is terminal C on my car(the connector is marked). On the I/P harness side there is a black/white wire. On the engine harness side there is not. Very strange.

        BTW: the white connector goes to the instrument cluster from the pcm. just a factoid in case someone was wondering.
