No clue, either, so to start I would check the validity of the wiring from the computer to the diagnostic connector. Find a wiring diagram and get out the old trusty ohmmeter. You know where the computer and the diagnostic connector are.
Take off the negative battery cable. Pull the PCM connector off. From the wiring diagram you know what pins on the PCM connector go to the diagnostic connector. Now, one ohmmeter lead on the diag. conn. and the other meter lead on the PCM connector-turn the meter to ohms and see if very little resistance is in that wire. Resistance to current flow means very high ohms. A short is a break in the wire, and the ohmmeter will show infinite resistance. A wire still connected by two little strands with the others broken, will show very high resistance, just not infinite.
Check all the wires going to the diagnostic connector in the same way. If all wires are good, check the computer is getting fully powered. Is check engine light on with key on? Is your diagnostic tool working okay on other cars?

could possibly be control head for heater/ac system. lots of gm vehicles have this problem.sounds like a loose connection, look under the dash on the right side near blower motor to check wires to blower motor

i found it best to remove radiator first before trying to tackle the alternator... once that is removed then you can easily get to it to unloosen bolt and swap

The GM 1995 Aurora repair manual, says to use the access hole under the
carpet in the back right corner of the trunk. You are best to buy a new fuel sender locking nut or ring at the
dealer for about $8.
Forgot to add this - to relieve the fuel pressure, just use the
press the center of valve on the fuel rail (for pressure testing) and a
rag to catch the dribble. Really no big deal.
Make sure disconnect the battery cables too

1987-97 VEHICLES EXCEPT 1997 MODELS WITH 16-PIN DLC
See Figures 1 and 2
Listings of the trouble for the various engine control system covered in this manual are located in this section. Remember that a code only points to the faulty circuit, NOT necessarily to a faulty component. Loose, damaged or corroded connections may contribute to a fault code on a circuit when the sensor or component is operating properly. Be sure that the components are faulty before replacing them, especially the expensive ones.

The Assembly Line Diagnostic Link (ALDL) or Data Link Connector (DLC) may be located under the dashboard, and is sometimes covered with a plastic cover labeled DIAGNOSTIC CONNECTOR.

On 1994-95 3.4L and 3.8L engines, and all 1996 models, an OBD-II compliant scan tool must be used to retrieve the trouble codes. Follow the scan tool manufacturer's instructions on how to connect the scan tool to the vehicle and how to retrieve the codes.
