Well... there's still no ground at the #19 wire, just 11.4v positive. Why would a working ECU that's supposed to put out 12v ground on the fuel pump relay #85 be putting out positive. It should never put out positive. Is there a short in one of the other 30 or so wires!?

I fucking hate #electronics

I guess I'm putting $250 down the drain.

This one's a NOS Bosch rebuild, so hopefully it works

If it doesn't I really am just gonna sell the fucking thing.

I don't know what to do next...

I could try another ebay #ECU, pour another $100 down the drain, and pray that it's not fried too.

I could try to replace the original ECU and wiring with a modern #MegaSquirt ECU.

I could tear all the fucking #fuelinjection shit out, find some #carburetors, linkage, manifolds, and low pressure fuel pump.

I could buy a $20k electric conversion kit.

I could set it on fire and roll it into the Columbia river.

I am so fucking sick of this. I've had this car for over a year stinking up my garage and I haven't even gotten the fuel pump to come on.

I bought a spare ECU, I sourced a replacement transistor, I soldered it on an ancient PCB, I've traced wires all the way from one end of the car to the next.

Fuel Injection was a mistake. I see why everyone converts these fuckers to carbs.

I finally got the ECU back together, so now I have to try and remember how to test it to see if the new transistor fixed it.

I should be getting 12v Ground on the #19 wire for a few seconds after turning the key.

Fingers crossed!!

See here's my perfectionism getting the better of me again; I want the ECU's fuel pump relay circuit to work, but I could easily just ground the #19 wire and it would run the pump as long as the key is on. In fact, the previous owner just bypassed the relay entirely with a wire directly to the fuel pump.

@schizanon@mas.to new ECU came in the mail today. Time to hook it up and see if the fuel pump relay circuit works. Cosmetically it looks worse than my old one, but if it works it works.
