I'd first do a connection refresh, clean all the connectors, especially grounds, make sure your power is good. Yank the battery off for a while (called "resetting the ECU") and see if it goes away. Otherwise time for a new ECU
The error means that the power on self test (POST) determined that your programming no longer matches its signature.

Great info here. Bookmark. I think you need to clean/ replace your IAC.

Hmm I take that back then... I was just commenting on the message lol
+1 look at IAC. Honestly I'm surprised the thing would even work if the EEPROM was corrupt.

how likely is it that my death wobble is caused by bad control arms or a slightly bent or tweaked not noticeably? or a bracket bent? or just bad bushings?

Instead of resurfacing my flywheel when doing the clutch replacement tomorrow, Im going to do what the FSM says and only break the glazing off. Your supposed to use 180 emery cloth, so far iv only found 180 grit sand paper and also scotch brite paint scuffing pad. It doesnt say the grit however. Will either of those work?

I was going to have it resurfaced however when I read that your not supposed to due to the flywheels unique contour I decided not to. Inspect for excessive wear, cracks, or grooves deeper than .003", if it checks out you just scuff it lightly and your set. Il inspect mine when its apart, if it appears ok Il clean it up and install the new clutch kit. Thank you

Thank you for reading **** on the internet. Resurfacing your flywheel is rhe correct way.
Just like turning rotors is the correct way to change brake pads.

I have probably done a hundred clutches this way. it's not necessary to turn it every time, only if its trashed up. Taking the glaze off just helps seat in the disc. I never turn rotors, just replace them. Unless you can true them on the car. Plus the crap they sell anymore, 2 sets of pads and there done anyway.
