Error Code Check

[warringtonjack]

Is there any way to do an error code check without using the engine warning light? my engine warning light bulb was removed at some point in the past. :roll: Thinking I may be having a knock sensor issue.

Consult or Conzult are the only other ways of interrogating the ECU for fault codes.

Just take the binnacle out and put the bulb back in. It's a fairly simple job !

Theres a LED on the rear of the ECU that is supposed to flash the fault codes.

Yes the red LED in the ECU should also display the codes.

I don't think that a knocksensor failure result in a enginefailure light up, in our P10 SR20DE it didn't.

As writen above, the consult give a failure in a few seconds.

I stand corrected said the man in the orthodpaedic shoes. :doh:

I see said the blind man.

Thats what I was after. Cheers fellas!

Right, need some help here. I swapped the bulb in the engine check light and still nothing. Doesnt even come on when ignition is turned on, is there a fuse just for this circuit somewhere?? Also, took the ecu out and the red light doesn't work either, it does flicker now and then so I know its not the bulb gone.

Anyone shed any light on this?? :?

 

[Fusion Ed]

The bulb is connected directly to the ecu - no fuse. I would either try another ecu or get a computer plugged in and any codes read that way.

Ive just purchased myself the Conzult, waiting for it to arrive and ill be straight in the R with the old laptop to see what little issues i may have.

For what facilities this Conzult offers its well worth the money £80 delivered, link below: -

I have the blatz gear, gives your error codes no prob. seems a very good piece of kit. money well spent i think. Just need more time to look at all the functions like the map trace? sounds interesting.
