To the CCRM.
appreciate it....ive been searching for ground to ccrm....do u know where that is???? heard ccrm has a diode inside that does go bad sometimes...was told also that fuel pump ground was under back of center console and only ground i found there was on the parking break light...but strange thing happened when i messed with center console..my power locks that have never worked since i bought car started working....dont know what ive done to make them start working....uuuugh..nightmare!!!! my friend who has same car offered to switch ccrm modules to see if it fixed my prob...but would like to check ground first..i know mod. is under fender but does it just have a ground coming out of it??? attatched to body???....appreciate your responses..this is my first stab at electrical prob....
 
The housing itself serves as a partial ground. The other ground is in the harness.
uuugh....was able to mess around with it today at work..checking for grounds/shorts....put car in air..gave it hell, ran it in gear..turned steering..turned a/c on and off..turned everything on and off..never blew circuit..but it has always done it going down road..but really thought if it was going to blow it would have today with what i was doing...my friend has same vehicle/year same etc...he offered to put his ccrm in mine and drive it and see what happens..what do u think??? this seems like a common prob on 98s but lots of different solutions...uuuuughhh...any more input???? thanx again!!!
