Asking a question? Or telling a story? ....Did anybody take Enlish class on this forum?...Not you "Machine4321," its just that no one can spell or use grammer correctly. Frustrating.

im sorry for not typing at your level but i was in a hurry running out the door .....

the question in the title is a logical question ...in turn i posted my findings of the difference i felt ....
if someone comes on and says ya with out a ground its no big deal

or someone says well your crazy cause your ecu would not work with out a proper ground then i will have to dig deeper into my findings

i think its funny you wasted time posting ...congrats

The ECU needs a ground, without it, it can't work properly. That's usually why they usually have more than one ground. Another way to test if your ECU has a ground at all is to turn the key on and look for the Check Engine Light. If it's off, the ECU doesn't have a ground.

We are here to learn and talk about cars, not to take a english class. Uless you just can't understend(oh I missed spelled a word,sorrry, nathan) what the person is trying to say, just answer the question and go on. One more thing, it does not look like you took english class either!!
