EEC-4 code q

Quick q about EEC-4 codes. This is on my '85, but you guys are probably more familar with EEC-4.

getting a code 18 (spout grounded). What would cause this, other than the wire for the spout being shorted to the frame or ground?

Did you take the SPOUT out while the truck was running? I've heard that can trip the code.

nope.. I got that code running & not running. I'll have to see if the connector or wire is loose.

any other guesses?
