Is there continuity?
YES : Repair a short in the VCC wire between the PCM (A36, C22, or C23) and each part that was
disconnected in step 2-2 , then do the repair verification .
NO : The VCC wires are OK. Update the PCM See PCM REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or
PCM UPDATE if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM See PCM
