Glad you got it going: not sure what the "wire" had to do with it but it works.

The "DTC" that could dent your new year is the "ISC Faulty", #6. If you want to see what MAY (probably) happen, read MENU#24 about the saga of my "ISC faulty" DTC. That's how the infamous ETA failure starts. Or the other corollary, equally as bad, is a bad wiring harness.

Right now, just reset all of the codes and see what happens. The reset procedure is in MENU#2 in "Erasing DTC Memory".
