Default Harness Connector - ECT Sensor, no continuity.

Hi everyone,

Look i have unpluged the Harness side connector to the ECT sensor. I have tested the connection for continuity of the ground circuit and there is no continuity present. I have also test the power supply voltage of the connector which provides the a reading of approximately 4.5V which is inside specs. My issue is how to i attempt to repair this problem on the harness H1 - C50-5 12?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks in advance.

If its just the internal copper thats broken in a wire i suggest replacing the wire...
If its on a PCB then your stuffed and its better to buy a new one...
Unless you know which track is the groung and where its broken, cause then you could drill the track before and after the break and solder in a bridging piece/wire...

Or it may just be easier to buy a new one...



Cheers

Now to reach the harness the copper wire leads to from the ECT sensor connector, is behind the main crash pad assembly? In other words i would have to remove this assembly in full to get to the harness which connects to a PCB? Is there a simplier way (i believe not). This PCB is basically the ECU or is that located somewhere else?.. Just trying to learn and have some fun and build on my non existent auto electrical knowledge. Another thing that has been confusing me, is that i tried to test the ECU socket in the fuse box, with an analog multimeter with the "com" on ground pin and (+) lead on the MFI pin - with no success. Then i purchased a Led Light Tester - still no success. Am i doing something majorly wrong???, im totally stumped. I tested the ECU socket ground pin and theres continuity. The only reason i am persisting, is the Engine Check Light comes on just before the engine has fully warmed up, disappears, followed by the engine over rev'ing for about 1 min, with loss of power when taking off - its a real pain and can be dangerous on the roads.

Lastly, thanks for your support and further assistance by either ^scythe^ or any other knowledgable members..
