The time has come to start asking questions...
Blue connector: Pins 2,19,20,57 all have 12v while 1, and 40 are grounded. Pin 58 is hooked up to my OBD II Port.
Red Connector: Pins 1, and 40 are grounded and Pin 39 has 12v
My questions are:
Is there anything else that requires power besides the "Orange and Pink" wires or the ones I mentioned above?
Would my battery charger give it the proper grounding it needs? It reads fine, but may not be strong enough?
Are VATS an issue at this point (Testing harness)?
Am I missing a 5v reference?
B2 and R39 are crank and cam sensor 12v. Not required for testing power
B19 must be on a switch while B20&57 constant for the scanner to function. If that's the case, test the grounds and serial circuit
Personally, I prefer ohming out each circuit instead of doing power/function tests. Much faster
VATS will not prevent your scanner from functioning. It only disables the starter and fuel system

Those wires hooked up alone will let the PCM start talking to the scanner?
Yes, has sufficent battery power and ground.

Pocket: Could you hook me up with what needs to be hooked up so I can have the engine run. Or if the PCM is powered I'm good to go? I seemed to have stepped back to square one. The pcm is good to go now, I'm ready to install it into the car. I would just like to know what else needs to be powered for the harness to function properly.
Thanks guys!
