Default Re: Service engine soon

Tom, thanks for the reply. Yes, it just did not reappear inthe next starting sequence. I am not sure if these things are prone to phantom codes, but it was certainly stored in memory for me to extract.

If yes. I would offer this from the peanut gallery. I used to get a lot of Cam Sensor codes when I first got my car. I had read up on "how to start an LT5" and knew all about the holding the key over to avoid the back fire deal. However, I was getting tired of this constant cam sensor code so I changed my "starting procedure" to putting the key over to run, stopping there long enough for all the DIC lights to come on, and then going to the "start" position. I haven't had a cam sensor code since.

I did the scanner thing & found nothing. I took apart every engine room connector and used some dielectric on the gaskets and the pins, took apart all the grounds I could find and did the star washer + dielectric thing.....still until I changed my "Starting" procedure I was still getting the cam sensor code.
