Fred,
Can you check that the ground to your computer has a good contact? Take a look at the harness going into the computer and look for the brown wire(s). Check continuity to ground. If you had a bad ground, I bet you'd possibly have problems, too.

I know the DME relay has at least one ground going to it. If it is indeed giving power to the computer, its ground must be working.

Just another avenue to explore.

I don't know where the grounding points are in your car.

Doug
