Getting the Wheeling Fever
OK, replaced the heater fan early this week and found a small ground wire NOT connected where is should be. This wire seems like it should have gone right where the ECU is held by a screw on the passenger side of the ECU. Any clue what it goes to or what it can effect? I re-attached it with seemingly no effect.

Thanks!

Fasteddy's advice is occasionally sound...

maybe that "no effect" is a good thing? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

The ecu ground should be a cluster ground on the passenger footwell outer wall, high. Several wires in the cluster to the ring terminal.

Possibly this wire from the blower motor resistor?
