    Along the firewall, just to the right of the fuel filter. If the CEL comes on and goes off after 2 seconds, when the ignition switch is turned to ON (Position II), the ECM is likely fine.

    Yes, it could be ECM failure, but run these tests first:

    . Test all under dash and under hood fuses with a test light or multimeter:

    Be very thorough, since it will save a lot of time and money. Pay particular attention to the ACG (ALT) (S) fuse, located in the under dash fuse box.

    . Perform the K-Test on the ECM.

    If the CEL still stays on, check the ignition switch for wear, pitting, or melting:
