Fast ongoing clicking after removing Neg battery cables
I've been wrangling a no crank situation. If I jump the start relay, the bus fires right up and runs great.
In doing some trouble shooting, I disconnected the two large NEG starter battery wires #1 & #3 (see picture).
If I remove #3, all is fine.
When I remove #1, I get a really fast clicking from what appears to be the ECM.
I understand the ECM has some capacitors in it for I believe the injectors, yet when I remove the NEG starting battery wires, everything should go dead.
To stop the clicking, I simply put #1 back on it's battery post.
Questions:
Why would something be clicking?
Could it have any relation to the no crank situation.
I need to figure this out so I can disconnect the ECM connections and test some ECM terminals, and I won't test without disconnecting the starting batteries.
Thanks.
