Great info Kevin, thanks for the post. Maybe someone has info on how to jump out the two pins.
On a side note, my Ford '05 6.0 died on me last week. After tons of reading online I purchased a Scan Gauge 2, and plugged into the OBDII port. To monitor FICM voltage and some other values need to troubleshoot with, you could enter parameters under XGauge and set up to have them displayed. I'm wondering if this might be possible on some Nissan models that have the OBDII port??
