You tested the wrong thing. You checked for resistance between the pins
when you should have been trying to measure a voltage differential. Set
your multimeter to roughly 20v DC, then check again, with the red(+) lead
on pin 18, if that is what Bentley is calling for. If you get anything
>11volts you're probably good to go.
Was the fuse blown aready when you were testing this?
When you say you checked the pins on the connecter as well, does that mean
you had the ECU connector unplugged while testing the pins on the ecu?
