Default Someone tell me something about ELD

My car is throwing a code for ELD (electronic load detector). It started when I drove up onto a curb to fix something underneath and accidentally hit the transmission on the curb. Everything electric pulses for a few minutes when the car is first started. I can't seem to find any information about ELD's. Can anyone help me out? D16Y8 bone stock.

Code 20, or ELD can be thrown if there are any interruptions in your grounding circuit or any misconnected connectors (i.e. connecting ECT A connector to ECT B switch). The most common cause of ELD is any of your 3 grounds (valve cover, thermostat, or TRANSMISSION) either coming loose or breaking all together.

Having read your symptoms and the events leading up to your code being thrown, i think it would be a good idea if you checked your tranny ground. Make sure it is not loose or that it is not missing all together.
