Does anybody know which wire to earth from the Auto error checking loom and the error codes?

TopGhia

donuts,

Could you elaborate a bit more, I am not sure what you mean.
Is it a 93 or 97/LE transmission?

Cheers

EA with 85LE right? The double plug is the ST output, the single plug the STI input. I will check how I labelled the code reader I made and tell what the two oins in the input are.
Errors codes:
11 - Pass
19 - Battery input volts too high or too low.
23 Wrong throttle position input.
26 Temperature too high or too low.
27 Inhibitor or PRNDL switch error
29 Fault in ignition sensor pulses.
36 no shaft sped sensor signal.
57 mode switch sensor fault.
67 Air con input faukt
95 Solonoid 5 fault.
98 On/Off solonoid fault.
89 Throttle not learnt.

The botton of the "T" in the two pin ST output gets joined to the STI input. The top of the "T" plug goes to your meter or test LED etc

Blue,

How do you make a code reader? I need one for the above vehicle, I know ds about car electronics, the last car I worked on you had to tune it yourself.

Thanks
Dave

Thanks Blue for the help, only just read it now.

Gregories manual skimped on showing the codes but pointed out there was a self test connector.

Topghia, for checking self test codes you get one of those little test lights things from super cheap... uno the ones where you have a aligator clip at one end and a little metal pen thing with a light globe in it that lights up when you hook 12 volts up. They are probably only $2 and it does the job for me.

<b>Donuts,</b> thanks for the info.

<b>Blue,</b> thanks, just what I was looking for.

I won't go into the details, but I just paid out $250 to an auto-electrician for something I could have fixed myself if I had read the codes.

If we keep reading these forums, we will end up bloody geniuses!
