I have not as of yet. I have tried but it immediately fails.

So either you didn't check\confirm power & ground, or the components resistance.... otherwise, it should pass no?

So which of the things you've claimed to have done, have you not done?

The only thing that I think is actual physical blockage or leak? But I feel like the manual is describing this as a power issue not a leak issue.

If it was a block it wouldn't refuse to attempt output test. There's an electrical issue here.
Walk me through what you did, step by step.
What fuse did you first check?

So I replaced the harness pig tail because voltage would drop and move around just by touching it. Fixed it by splicing in a new pig tail. But my voltage was still low, took out the fuse panel under the hood the one that supplies the all the power for under hood electric, I noticed the wire from the fuse to the connector was dropping power, moved it around cleaned the terminals and I was back at 10 volts, I noticed the under hood jumper connecting point was gross looking and not delivering 12 volts to the actual fuse, cleaned that up and Presto had battery voltage.

Cool story bro.... WHAT FUSE did you check as your first step?

Fuse s-12

Excellent. Moving along. What is the resistance of the N80?

Within spec 20 ohms I believe it was

Good... so now you start the engine and check voltage between pin 1 and ground and you get what?

Like 13v +

Good... so now we check the other pin to the ECM... which ECM pin did you check continuity to and what value did you obtain.

Pin 23 on the 60 pin

 

[Touaregvr6nyc]

Pin 23 on the 60 pin

And it like was like .01

 

[SaVAGeSoot]

Specified value: 1.5 ohms

 

[Touaregvr6nyc]

So you think that’s the issue?

 

[Touaregvr6nyc]

sorry it was .07 or .8

 

[SaVAGeSoot]

No idea... I wasn't there, I didn't do any of the testing.
You could have a crappy meter, a good meter with crappy probes, a combination of those, or bad wiring..... not getting anywhere to the correct value (and the fact that it still doesn't work or that the controller won't run output tests on it) would be a red flag for me.

What do you think?

 

[Touaregvr6nyc]

I agree I think I need to re check all the power.

[Touaregvr6nyc]

Do I need to reset the codes every time before I try to initialize the tests

 

[SaVAGeSoot]

Except that's the ground... you already checked the power up to this point... it helps if you can differentiate between those two.
