Problem is i cant seem to tell where its coming from while down there. Its kinda wet everywhere on that side. Its not the upper hose i know that much. Lower hose prone to leaking? After driving my bumpstops, coils, and that whole right side knuckle is relatively soaked.

What do I need to use to ground the terminal out? There isn't a wire in the number 10 terminal.

Oh, Google failed me then. That pinout is definitely for 97+ XJs. The term PCM was adopted with Chrysler, "ECU" only shows up in Renix literature
