One thing to be carefull with the pin test ( /me mucked this up)
is when you stick you test probes in the ecu connector pins be real carefull
not to expand the pins to
much if your pin test happend to be all good
but you expand the pins all of a sudden you test procedure may cause a whole
other set of problems :)
