Default Engine Ground Map?

Does anyone have a map of the engine grounds. I still have the SCS error and I have been informed that it could be a loose engine ground.

Any help appreciated.

how are the volts doing? If the car is charging and you have a message only call Tracy at RevExtreme a forum vendor. He has a modded alt that might be the trick. Otherwise welcome to my hell with this too.

Working in conjunction with that excellent ground map, use this to see exactly what is tied into those ground connections:

You need a steady 12.3-12.7 at idle to not trigger the warning. The 14.5 at speed is more than adequate.

Correct, I get low voltage at idle...I think I may just have to have e pulley taken off.
