Can't find a pic of it anywhere. But go to your jump point under the hood. Take the red cover off. It is the 2 bolt thing hanging off the side.

Thanks! I figured that was the one, but his mentioning "alternator" threw me off. I see on the wiring diagram that it shows "generator" on that feed so it makes sense now.

Well dang! Why didn't I remember way back at the first post to look for the PS wiring diagram?
Sure 'nuf, here it be. Scroll to post #4 and click on the last attachment in that post:

Green, Curios how did you jump start the car when you did? At the jump points? Or the battery?
Can you remember exactly where you hooked the cables to?

I connected the jumper pack to the posts under the hood in order to try to get power to open the trunk. I never tried to jump the car from there, nothing happened when I connected it there though. Although apparently it blew the fuse.

So, tell/show us where that sucker is located, please.

Its on the battery post under the hood, right where the little "power tower" is that has the cap. That directly connects to the 2 fuses which is one single module of 225A and 125A. The 125A goes DIRECTLY to the PS Rack In a Violet & Black wire that forms a big plug on the rack side.
I'll take some pictures next week after the fuse comes in to detail replacing it and where the wires go since I have to toss my car back on the lift to fix the Transmission Reverse Lockout anyway.

So I managed to finally fix the EPS fuse.... I had to go buy a Milwaukee 3/8 right angle impact to get the 125A post nut off.... the entire thing has nothing that holds it but a plastic housing and I mangled everything trying to get that bolt loose! Even 3 applications of liquid wrench did nothing...

Now my reverse lockout is still broken sadly, I replaced the solenoid last night after I confirmed the steering was working but it didn't do anything Anyone have diagrams for that one?

Reverse Inhibit Description and Operation
The reverse inhibit solenoid is a safety feature which prevents an inadvertent shift into reverse at speeds above 5 km/h (3 mph) . The system consists of the following components:


The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) .
The reverse inhibit solenoid.
With the ignition ON battery voltage is supplied directly to the reverse inhibit solenoid. At forward speeds above 5 km/h (3 mph) the PCM grounds the control circuit of the reverse inhibit solenoid. This energizes the solenoid and mechanically blocks the shift lever from going into the REVERSE position.

I am going through these diagrams trying to figure out what could be broken. My whole car scanner has codes for the BCM showing "battery voltage not plausible" and the parking brake has a code saying "improper data received from power steering module". I think that maybe its a BCM issue.

I remember one of the fuse blocks having quite a few bcm fuses. I'd start by seeing if their is power to the reverse lockout solenoid. Sounds like it cuts power to lock out, so it may just be a fuse somewhere also. I see a TCM Ignition fuse #70, not real sure why in a manual. Perhaps the PCM called out in the description.?.

I tested every fuse in the car a couple months ago when trying to find the EPS fuse... But I will pull these ones in specific to check them again.
