Strange that the label inside the diag box cover is missing. At any rate you should have tried the Online shop manual. It's page B1-8 in mine so try around there. g/l
psssst, there's a great TPS "how to" in the FAQ's .....hehehe

your car OBDII, I dont think the GND/10 even exists, let alone will work. Betcha you'll need to find the diagnostic port and use an OBDII code reader.

I have a 94 GS and my diagnostic plug locates GND And TEN as the 3Rd and 5th slot, depending on how you look at the plug. if you look at the diagnostic plug, the cover flips left to right. Inside there are two sets of plugs. If you are standing in front of the car you would be using the one on the left. in this case it would appear like this. this is kinda a half a-- diagram but if you look straight in it should appear similar to this.
[11] 1=fen 8=fac
[4] [10] [17] 2=men 9=fws
[3] [9] [16] 3=TEN 10=fsc
[8] [15] 4=tb 11= (not used)
[2] [7] [14] 5=GND 12-17= does not apply to your question
[1] [6] [13] 6=fat so I did not list them
[5] [12] 7=fbs

to be quite honest I dont even know. I bought it off of ebay and I know its for a 2.5 but thats all I know. If you know how to check i would be happy to find out and let you know. Maybe you could even tell me a thing or two about it.

Normally it's marked in huge letters right on the top of the ECU. But given that, I'm guessing you have an OBDI ECU...I know for fact that hoffman_BMX89's Mx-3 is OBDII. The regular diagnostic mode doesn't work cause we tried that on Jenn's (I dont remember her name) Mx-3 like 2 years ago, but it didn't work cause her's was OBDII

94 they started to switch over, but 94's are mostly OBDI is seems, whilere 95's are about half and half, but that's just personal guestimation, the actual numbers may be completely different, but I'm fairly that 96's and up are OBDII 100%. 96's are rare enough as they are, but I've never heard of one that was OBDI.

I've never heard of a KL55,but it seems it's a OBDI ECU out of a 94 MX-6
