yes I did, the Wires were;

  1. Green/Red(14ga)- EGT
  2. White/Red (14ga)- Injector
  3. Black Wire (18ga)- pin26 (the one I burned)
  4. White/Blue(14ga)- EGR solenoid
  5. White/Blue(18ga)- Temp Guage

 

1) I'm guessing the EGT was the first to go because for 2 weeks before the FAIL I was getting an EGR code.

 

2) Then went the injectors and I was probably leaning out every time I hit a bump or vibration because my hwy MPGs were getting really good and I thought it was just an EGR leak letting me cruise good.

 

3) Then died with the black one when the injector power was able to go directly to PIN 26 and burn the circut. I'm surprised the 18ga wire did not burn out somewhere else first. The black wire was pretty toast and its jacket was fused to the Injector wire.

 

4 & 5) The short location metlted the actual copper on the black and the heat damaged the jackets on the Reamaining two wires. They were not exposed but the burn areas were brittle and ready to crack.
