You're onto something! :woohoo: Perhaps that wiring was heat damaged before you owned it, and manipulating the harness caused some insulation to flake off.

While manipulating the harness, you could rig your multimeter to watch the 5V reference circuit (which was abnormally high last time around). When the readings start changing, you know you're onto something.

big update thank you for you guidance i went into the harness where i said and found a major ground that when i tightened it it turned and broke i reconnected it and my car started right up no issues to show. i have to say that scannerdanner you tube videos made me feel like i could go in there and find it i am so grateful to you Tyler for walking me through it all. again thank you so much

Sweet! :woohoo: I take it you got communication back with the ECM, and the 5V reference went back to normal? For my info, whereabouts was the ground that you fixed?

Very glad to hear she's up and running again. You can feel proud of this one - lots of professional techs would have given up or thrown a computer at it. :silly:

it was a major ground at the from of the block passenger side because i had put extra heat wrap i didn't notice when i tightened it down it turned and ripped apart inside the sheilding so it looked ok and the heat wrap made it look good as soon as i removed the heat wrap the i could see the head of the wire just flopping around this is also why i kinda had connection.unfortunately i didn't take a pic of it till i fixed it. again i cant thank you enough

No problem! I genuinely appreciate you working with me in the right direction. :cheer:

I especially appreciate the CAN network readings you took at the DLC. It helps my diagnostic approach to know how stuff like bad grounds changes readings on the network. I can explain why both lines were at 0V, but not so sure I can explain the zero ohms... Anyone following along is welcome to make suggestions!

Got a multimeter? There's a few quick checks you can do to give us a better diagnostic direction. First, turn the ignition on and find a 5V reference sensor under the hood. Something easily accessible. Pretty sure the MAP is right there behind the throttle body? Disconnect it. Connect your multimeter to B- and gently probe all three pins. At least one should have 5V.

You can also check for network integrity and activity at the Data Link Connector. First, leave the key off for two minutes. Find pins 6 and 14 at the DLC.



Switch the multimeter to ohms and gently probe 6 and 14 at the same time. What is the reading? We want to see around 60 ohms.

While at the DLC, turn the ingition on and switch the multimeter to voltage. Connect the meter to B- and check pins 6 and 14 separately for voltage. What are the readings?


I'm sorry for bringing up such an old post but I'm having the same issues and I really could use some help.. I just finished a big project on my 2014 Camaro SS and now its throwing codes U0100 and P0231. I've had my battery tested, I've re grounded all my grounds, checked my fuses, and reconnected my ECM twice and still having issues. The car will start and even sounds good (Appears to run Lean), But i'm getting the codes and a loss of power steering, Also the majority of my readings (RPM etc) aren't pulling up or being read on HP tuners... I check the voltage on my MAP sensor and its reading around 4.7 ish volts, BUT I just checked ohms between pins 6 and 14 and its ranging from -75 to -85 ohms (I'm guessing this is an issue?) Again sorry for bringing up and old post but i've been throwing myself at this for over a week with no avail, I just wanna drive my finished project :/

Sure thing, So i installed a new cam, New heads, new intake manifold, A new fuel pump, new torque converter and a flex fuel sensor. I also uploaded a new tune via HP tuners.. And no i had 0 issues prior.

when you installed the flex fuel sensor did you connect it correct?

also there are many grounds that were attached to the motor did you return all of them in the same manner. these cars are vary finicky.

Yes, one of the few readings that are actually working on hp tuners is alcohol content so I know its hooked up properly.

And I have checked all fuel related fuses, (all fuses actually), I even swapped out my fpms relay. I've regrounded EVERY single possible ground.. im going crazy trying to figure this out..

Are these symptoms constant or intermittent?

I check the voltage on my MAP sensor and its reading around 4.7 ish volts, BUT I just checked ohms between pins 6 and 14 and its ranging from -75 to -85 ohms (I'm guessing this is an issue?)


When was the HSLAN resistance reading taken, exactly? Abnormal readings like that may be normal if you took the reading with the engine running or the key on.

Also, which pin were you on when you measured MAP voltage? Engine off or running?

Again sorry for bringing up and old post but i've been throwing myself at this for over a week with no avail, I just wanna drive my finished project :/


No worries! In the future it'd probably be better to start a new thread so anyone else searching for fixes in the future will have an easier time finding it. But for now, let's fix your project. :cheer:

So I get that reading (-750 - -850 ) when I check right after opening my door with motor off and key out, However I check again a couple mins later with door still open, key and motor off and it reads 002

And I checked the first pin of my map sensor which currently reads 4.93 volts

Interesting. B) Is the ECM easily accessible? If so, leave your DMM connected across pins 6 and 14, and unplug all three connectors. Key out, door closed, wait a couple minutes and recheck the meter. Hopefully, it'll be close to 120 ohms.

UPDATE: I re uploaded a new tune hoping the old one had an issue.. I no longer have the u0100 code, Now i have P069E (Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination (SES, Pending, Current, History) and P0603 - Internal Control Module Keep Alive Memory (KAM) Error (Pending, Current)

At this point i'm thinking it has to be a bad pcm or fpcm
