3 1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Inspect the ECM (10A) fuse (EB-4) in the engine
room fuse block.
Is the ECM (10A) fuse (EB-4) open? Go to Step 4 Go to Step 5
4 Replace the ECM (10A) fuse (EB-4). If the fuse
continues to open, repair the short to ground on one
of the circuits that is fed by the ECM (10A) fuse (EB-
4) or replace the shorted attached component fed by
the ECM (10A) fuse (EB-4).
