Checked all fuses and relays?

Changing system working correctly? Or can it idle without running away to check?

Battery connections, grounds, etc?

Two things I can think of are removing your serpentine belt or removing the alternator fusible link. I wouldn't do either for long. I'm sure someone will chime in on whether removing the fusible link could damage anything (from the alternator not having a connection to charge with).

Looking at the manual, the codes showing sensor issues do not have many shared grounds. Most are individual grounds to the ECU itself. It tricky to get to to, but have a look at the connectors to the ECU. Drivers side of the engine, mounted to the side of the block. I'm almost certain it is a ground problem, if not an ECU problem.

Were you ever able to confirm that the ECM was bad?
