Its for ELD, Electronic load detector. Usually means you have to replace your under hood fuse box where the ELD is located.

You only need to replace the ELD unit(fuse box) if the actual ELD unit failed. If it is doing its job correctly you could have a faulty ground or a short to the chassis somewhere.

I had this happen in a 91 hatch, a ground wire for the ecu shorted and caused all the grounds under the dash to overload and melt, causing a code 20. It was a blast to track down the source.
