    Cyrk,
    Thank you so much for the picture! I jiggled that harness when the car was running but didnt do anything further with that one at the time. I thought you guys were talking about the three harnesses that are immediately in front of that one (about 4 inches more forward) that actually clip to the radiator support.

    Where along the one that you are pointing to have the shorts been found??

    Cyrk,
    I also read your other thread but wasn't sure what the final outcome was for your problems. Was it the EGR valve? A short? Something else? Please recap what the final problem turned out to be on your VX.
    Regards,
    Ken

    My VX was throwing tons of codes at the time, we replaced the TP sensor, P0123 (TP Sensor Circuit Input High) & P1121 (TP Sensor Circuit Intermittent Voltage High), my MAP senor an a Mode range selector switch, That cleared the codes then got another code and we could not find out what it was ands the only other thing connected to those items in some way was the EGR valve, replaced it and have not had another code since...

    I have started using (and offering) a new product called ScanGauge that has history tracking, does not require a PC, and simply pplugs into the ODBII port - all for $125.00 http://www.scangauge.com/

    Reads Trouble Codes
    * Reads conditions that set the Trouble Code
    * Clears Trouble Codes
    * Turns off "Check Engine" light
    * Make and store up to 10 rewritable special codes
    to send to the vehicle computer

    AND

    Shows 4 gauges at a time from the possible following:

    * Fuel Economy (MPG)
    * Fuel Rate (GPH)
    * Battery Voltage
    * Coolant Temperature
    * Intake Air Temperature
    * Engine Speed (RPM)
    * Vehicle speed (MPH)
    * Manifold Pressure
    * Engine Load
    * Throttle Position
    * Ignition Timing
    * Open/Closed Loop

    AND

    Automatically tracks three sets of trip data -
    Current (short) Trip
    Days (total) Trips
    Previous Days Trips

    * Maximum Speed
    * Average Speed
    * Maximum Coolant Temperature
    * Maximum RPM
    * Driving Time
    * Driving Distance
    * Fuel Used
    * Trip Fuel Economy
