Trouble with trouble codes
Can anyone tell me if I should be getting a trouble code if I unplug a sensor, say cam or crank, and then try to start the car? Does the motor need to run to register a trouble code? If I get no trouble codes does it mean my computer is shot? Is the ECU also responsible for trouble codes or is there a seperate computer for diagnostics? I would greatly appreciate anybody's input, thankyou.

Re: Trouble with trouble codes
You have two seletions for codes. ECM and CCM. Depending upon the year of the car will make a dfference as well as to how much they integrate with one another.
Codes will be set with the car running. Unplugging a crank sensor will not set a code from my memory. Makes it tough to trouble shoot. What is the issue you are having? |

Re: Trouble with trouble codes
Trouble codes set only when running huh? That does make this infinitely more difficult.
I would greatly appreciate borrowing your ISS machine. If I haven't found a solution by the end of Sunday I would love to meet up with you. Thankyou for all your help.
