Do I have to make a jumper off the back of those pins?
What pins exactly?

I feel like I've been thrown under a bus^.
OP, you're last post was directed to delcowizzid (before it was edited).
Now my post looks ridiculous.
I'm not changing it to suit you.
Thanks.

Sorry my bad, thought I'd edit my message so it was neutral.

I'll have to try this later on this evening.
If I'm to use a multi meter, what pin and pcm terminals would I test to check if the wire was damaged

Your battery looks cactus.
Check for a good continuity from pin no.5 to earth. Can the battery be that low and still start?
Double check the pos (+) to neg (-) on the battery (volts).
Terminal no.4 (ALDL) is also an earth.
That's a lot of fresh air in that img. haha
Just pulled up at work, battery volts reading with multi meter 12.81V

Hi,

A happy day today. I've learnt I also have a faulty fractured wire. At some point I'll strip and repair the wire(s).
