Power Supply: Notes

KL30 - Battery Voltage:  B+ is the main supply of operating voltage to the ECM.

Power Supplies:  The power supplies (KL15 and ECM Relay) are fused to the MS S54 ECM. The fuses are housed in the Engine Fuse Block located in the Electronics Box.

KL15 - Ignition Switch:  When the ignition is switched "on" the ECM is informed that the engine is about to be started. KL15 (fused) supplies voltage to the Engine Control Module Relay and the Fuel Injector Relay. Switching KL15 "off" removes the ECM operating voltage.
