No pulseing at fuel injector connectors. Snap-on scaner when hook up to data link reads not connecting to car pcm. Some one has removed the starter relay and hook up a wire from the stater celonoid leg to a seperate switch (in other words you turn ign on then press switch to start) The vehicle start once and ran for one to two mins. What I notice was the bat light that normaly dont work when ign is turn on, flash on for a few seconds then it started. I have fuel pressure and sprk to plugs at all times. Need help

The check engine light is not working (period) Also I notice that a used trans. Has been installed (famous junk yard yellow mark on trans.) Should't there be a ground cable for the pcm on trans. Bellhousing ect? There is only the main ground ffrom bat to block. The fuses and relays check good. Oh" no power at injector wires

You can run a temp ground to tranny and check ,
believe wiring issue
Check DK GRN/OR wire for power
it should have battery power if not
check ASD relay and circuit
if you have spark and no power at injectors
DR GRN/OR wire
check for a short in that wire
they all supplied by the same ASD relay
check CRANK sensor
