Just curious, but what makes you think its a wiring harness issue? I believe speedforce racing in santee works with rotarys.

Because the code is below min threshold I can't remember what it is off the top of my head, and I've I've replaced the SSV with a known working OEM part on two occasions. Code comes on and off, as well as power loss at 7k rpm on occasions, but not consistently. I've also cleaned the ssv itself, and held pressure in the actuator. Although it wasn't the diy brake bleeder its just mouth power lol. Another reason is that my friend with a high end scanner has gone and turned the ssv on/off and nothing happens while the car is off, unlike both other.solenoids. however when the car is on it USUALLY does what its told by the scanner. Leading me to think that there is a short. And there was a lot of oil buildup on the wire harness...and after dealing with the Power steering issue with the harness, I figured that's as good of a place to start as any.
