Default Code (20) after swap, some help please

did this swap for a friend (DPFI to MPFI), we are getting 2 codes
(10) which is the ITC ( we dont know where this plugs into what wires on the DX harness

but most important

(20) Electric LOAD!! what does this mean!? I would assume that there has to be a short somewhere in the wiring .. but where would the short most likly be! We made sure NOT to cross wires etc...

did you swap a B16a in? code 20 would likely be a bad/loose ground. Most common is the small ground near the thermostat housing being left off
