    found something about service manual

    Today I decided to read DTCs and update my SC Flashpaq. I had a MIL pop up last week and figured it was my coolant temp thermostat code again (runnin a 170 degree thermo). That was there along with a C2100. I looked up the C2100 and found it was low voltage on the ABS module. If it drops below 7.5 volts it trips a DTC (C2100). I decided to read the info and troubleshooting in the manual. I was looking for something in particular. I removed my number 17 fuse from the front relay box last Sunday while at the drag strip and decided to roll around for a week without it. Apparently, with that fuse out the module gets no power and it eventually discharges what's left and, when it drops below 7.5 volts, it trips the C2100 code. I'm not sure if this will generate and actual MIL (I'll keep an eye out for that) but I thought I would throw out my findings/assumptions and see what the more informed have to say about it. The main point I somehow managed to skew away from was that the service manual doesn't say anything about checking for a blown/removed number 17 fuse.

    for the most part, the diagnostic procedures in the service manual are very thorough. the information is there, it's up to you to know how the system works and properly interpret the test results.

    I have found that the manual is on crack!!! When I was installing my HID kit I could not find the "Headlight Fuse" low beam in the manual for the life of me. I finally got pissed and looked online....
