Fuel "Control monitor" or "Signal conditioner"

[Ernie Martin]

Two points.

For Pete: Where does one find, or who would have, such a box? How does one find a shop that has one? Dealers only?

For Ed: From my experience, it's understandable to be frustrated, but not at the people. I went through it when my mechanic (who I rate highly) and we looked at every item and tried everything. It's just a very elusive system, especially without the right tools. We inspected every connector and lightly sanded them to remove any corrosion and opened pins and closed females for more solid contacts, including the ones behind the cluster mentioned by Pete (there's a thread in this Message Board about it). Remember that the system relies on very tiny signal levels of capacitance, so any minor impairments in the lines can affect readings. I think Pete is correct that it's virtually impossible to troubleshoot the system without the specialized box.
