Mine looks a little different than that diagram. to the right of the throttle body there is a black looking box that I believe is called the resonance flap. The bottom of it was just stuck on tight to the intake, you just have to pry it up carefully.

I had checked the wires going to the throttle body connection and those wires look brand new. I took the throttle body off and the wire connected to the throttle body is totally disintegrated. I opened the front of the throttle body itself and all those wires are totally gone. I'll take a picture tomorrow but I'm not feeling good about it right now. I might take a shot at rewiring it but my soldering skills leave something to be desired,but for over 1000 it may be worth a try.

I bought a salvaged eta and installed it on the car. Same problems but the code on the cc/isa computer changes from 3 to 2 pointing to the isc computer module. So I started to hunt for a module when I figured ok let me check the wiring harness first, although I believe the wiring harness has been changed already. Then I thought, let me check the new eta. So I took it apart and sure enough, more bad wiring. I then noticed the two bigger wires at the top were shorting out against the housing itself, and while the other wires were cracked a little those two were by far the worst. I decided to carefully wrap some electrical tape around them for insulation and I installed it back on the vehicle. Viola. All codes gone, car runs perfect. I suppose it will last long enough for me to rewire the old one. I thought I read where you can purchase just the cable. If this is indeed true I would appreciate anyones help if you know where I can locate one.
