With the ignition on, I believe it is Ground to pin 7... might wanna double check that on R3V though. I'm sure it says it somewhere in their FAQ section.

hahaha shhhhhhhhhh

You better know what you are doing, otherwise you may fry your ECU.... do what slimjim said and get it reset by a shop. Most problem-free way.
