Well... after swapping throttle bodies I turned the key on, opened up my gameboy (interface for DTEC tuner) and left the key on for about 3 or 4 minutes at which point I started to smell burnt electronics. Never started the vehicle. Turned the key off, disconnected the battery and found some smoke under the dash by the PCM. Pulled the PCM and took off the cover to find this...
I'm hoping at least one of you (Terry/KeyDiver) can help me out here and possibly know what it is that this particular part of the ECU controls so I can figure out what may have shorted out. Or... if this is just a freak occurrence and the car decided it doesn't want me driving it anymore. To the best that I can tell, it looks like that chip, or whatever it is, has the circuit label "R33" next to it, if that helps.
Secondly, and I'll add a post in the Wanted section, it looks like I'll be needing to purchase a new ECU. If anyone can help me out in the least bit I would be greatly appreciative.
