Burnt EEC IV
 
Hi, everyone I just wanted to ask a question.
I was in the mall parking lot recently when a little old lady hit the driver side front part of my car. (88 mustang convertable) http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/frown.gif Althought the damage was not great, the accident caused a very serious short to the battery and the solonoid.

I had the car towed home because of the short. When i finally got the car started again I noticed the idle was very high about 1500-2000rpms. I tried checking the codes to see if i could diagnose the problem but there are no codes. All I get on the meter is a 12volt charge; on all the connectors.

Finally my question: How and What do you check to see if the EECIV is toasted or not?

BTW I checked as best as I could to see if there was no other short; I couldn't find one. I also reseted the idle, no change.
Thanks in advance.

Does the car respond at all to KOEO or KOER codes?

No, the car doesn't show any codes. No flashes no movement. When I connect the tester, I'm using an anolog voltage tester BTW, all it shows is a constanat voltage reading but no codes.

When I use test light, all it does is stay lit it doesn't flash. I tried the KOEO test,and KOER, and nada.

By respond, I meant the testing of relays and stuff in the engine, the clicks and stuff you hear when you first connect it, But if it's not doing that, I would think that's a problem. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/frown.gif Good luck man... Maybe you have a friend with a computer that you can try...
Just make sure you fixed the shorts that you had!!!! http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/eek.gif
