    You only need the Service Manual. It covers pretty much everything (but it doesn't list the part #s for ordering). It's about 9,500 pages long... do not order the hard copy, shipping will kill you.

    Well the problem was solved, we removed all fuses one by one till we found the source it was the extra heater, although we did nothing, pulling and putting back the fuses stoped the ETC light from comming back, 4 days hard driving an no light, fingers crossed, as opossed to everyday.
