I can't find a ground wire on the fsm. Its the ground wire thats connected next to cyclinder 1 n next to power steering reservoir. It bolts on top of intake manifold. Close by to the rear vtc solenoid.

I tested it for continuity with my tester. I connect aligator clip to a ground on chasis and the tester to the ground n tester doesnt light up. I check the cps, and other 2 grounds on top of intake manifold and it lights up. So im trying to replace the bad one. I just dont know where does the bad ground wire other end leads too.

 

After thinking about this, I believe the way you are testing this isn't valid.

What I saw yesterday looked like you had partially removed the engine harness and also unbolted several engine harness ground points along with removing the intake manifold etc. You were then testing continuity between the chassis and ground locations that you had previously unbolted (ungrounded).

Of course you are not necessarily going to have continuity between every harness ground and the chassis in that scenario because you have already undermined your test due to previously removing links in the chain by starting to unplug and remove grounds.

I think the more appropriate way to continuity test would be to check each harness end point for continuity vs. the ECU side pins. Or to leave your harness entirely in place and all grounds bolted on and then continuity test each ground point vs. the battery negative terminal.

 

I did both with harness plug and unplug and I got the same results. when I showed you the video was the first test with harness unplug. afterwards I installed everything back and got the same results. I also test it from negative terminal.

 

Are you still working on this? I have lots of recent pictures of untouched VE motors, could that possibly help?

 

Its my timing chain guides that broke. Knock out off timing

 

Then what are you messing with ground wires, or testing you CPS? You need to pull and rebuild the heads, maybe replace some pistons, then get the timing fixed before things like the CPS would be correct...
