rtbiscuit Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 he needs to get his code read, then it will be easier to diagnose form there. either use the flashing light method, or if he gives a location, there might be a member near by with a code reader. Quote
cmck13 Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 Hi Guy's and Gals, just had this message from shane1964 if anyone can shed some light i think he will be grateful dont no what section to post in thick on forums, my engine man light came on tonight for some reason, seems to be running ok, havent got a clue thanks shane1964 Need more info really, is it permanently on or flashing if its permanently lit generally its considered not a serious fault if its flashing, more serious needs to be dealt with quickly.Count the flashing for the code number if its doing this, or in this site there is a list of fellow members who have a code reader who I am sure will be happy to check out the issue with the light. Search is your friend , "OBDII Code Readers national locations". One of the main problems that crops up alot is if you have fitted hi flo cats they tend to burn lean and the o2 sensors pick this up. A simple check with the reader can reset this issue. I see rtbiscuit has just beaten me on this subject but it should help. Quote
Ekona Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 I'll just use my crystal ball to see the problem, hang on... OOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... OOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... OOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Ah yes, it's all becoming clear now! It's a P-3436754390/AKM error to do with the guffinsprocket mixing incorrectly with the discombobulator. Easy to fix. Quote
SwanageDave Posted May 3, 2012 Author Posted May 3, 2012 I havent a clue what the problem is he is having, just got the message on facebook. and i would be surprised if there is anyone around where he lives bright enough to help as he is in the Midlands.. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 most garages will read codes for a small charge. all he needs is the error code Quote
