Hello all, been a while since I've messed with the car. In 2016 I pulled the engine and trans as well as the whole front clip. Sanded, painted and replaced anything in need. I also opted to install a FiTech fuel injection system. Fast forward to now I'm getting ready to wrap up the wiring. I gave the car some juice from the battery and noticed everything turned on BUT the keys were still in my pocket. Car cranks, won't start (reasons unknown currently) but when I take the key out the pink resistor wire stays "hot".... I don't recall it doing this before I pulled the engine. All the diagrams appear to indicate that this is an ignition controlled wire or "Run" wire...

after beating my head against the wall for 2 days I cannot trace the wire back to anything that would cause it to stay live. Additionally it is not being back fed.. I even removed the ignition switch entirely. Still stays live.

Any ideas?? At a loss...


-Greg
