Smile Thinking bad EEC. Can someone confirm?

I guess they deleted my profile by accident so time to start from scratch Oh well.

Anyway,

The motor died yesterday after she was giving me trouble cutting out when going from Park to Drive (Auto). Finally I lost power, sputtered, and coasted to a stop. She will crank just fine. I have fuel pressure, fire, and air. All relays and fuses are good. My check engine light is not illuminating and it will not perform a self test.

When I turn the key the fuel pumps do the normal initial prime/test. I thought this meant the EEC was operational but considering I have no self test and no check engine light, I am leaning toward a bad EEC. Possibly not a complete failure since the fuel pumps test initially, but a partial failure of the unit. I checked the power to the EEC it is good. I pulled the battery to reset just in case but not dice.

Can someone confirm if I am headed down the right track here?

Thx!
