[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3238746, member: 29706"] Most of the times it's in the connectors or right next to them. I had an issue with the camshaft position sensor in my 4.7l Replaced it with a cheapo unit and it still had issues. Started to do some testing and found it had a broken wire right next to the connector. Rebuilt the connector and extended the lines and it was better. Found out that the aftermarket sensors are not as sensitive as they should be for that purpose so bought an OEM one and it has ran perfectly ever since. Find a wiring manual and pull the connector, then test the connections for which one is potentially grounded but should not be. But honestly if it's a short it is probably not in the wiring but the devices. The TCCM would then likely be the culprit. But you can still test each end by looking up the wiring diagrams pull battery and check the tccm for something that is grounded but should not be. Same goes for the other connection points. A multimeter is worth it's weight in gold when it comes to potential electrical issues. [/QUOTE]
