So after days of cleaning and renewing grounds and repeating such. Replacing cluster harness, Trying known working PCM, CPS, ACM, TCM, etc.. Disconnecting all sensors one at a time. Numerous resistance and voltage checks.. Problem is solved. It was a very intermittent issue and some of the...

(Key in/ON position) Disconnected all the sensors one at a time and all together... No change.. Voltage on harness to sensors tests 5.2 volts. With all sensors disconnected (or connected), Voltmeter set to 20V, simply touching one pin on the CDL (pin 11, ccd bus) with one probe from the...
