Got a Check Engine Light today. Pull the codes with my scanner and it flags a Oxygen Sensor Bank 2 Sensor 2 no data code.

Stay tuned for the fix.

 

Before I started the car this morning I cleared the MIL codes and turned off the Check Engine Light. Started the car and all o2 sensors were registereing and acting normal per my scanner. I used the scanner all the way to work. No problems, no CEL from MIL's...

Maybe it was a computer malfunction... Maybe it will re occur sometime.

For now, all is well.

 

Hey Adam

Where'd you get that scanner you are using to detect those codes? Sounds pretty handy. What else will that scanner do besides read codes and diagnose them?

Thanks

 

I use the Nology PDA Dyno Scan and Scanner software with my Sony Clie PDA.

Does a lot of cool stuff:

ooooooo......that's noice.........

ima look into that one.....

 

Another code got thrown today. P0410 .. Secondary Air Pump.

As far as I can tell the Air Pump is working, so I'm now seeing if a vacuum leak is the problem. The code only has thrown 2 times in the past week. So, this is weird.

 

Adam Can i ask what you do?

The reason I ask is I was just skipping through the channels and there was a guy on VH1 named Adam Winer. It said Editor of some magazine, was that you or just the old same'd name'd trick?

 

Not me. I think the editor of FHM is named Adam Winer though.

 

Problem fixed. Ended up being a faulty relay that controls the Air Pump.

 

Hello, I'd like to buy a code reader/scanner for my '93 300E but I'm not able to locate one. Can anyone help?

 

Most of us are using OBDII readers. OBDII started with cars 1996 and newer.

For a '93, I am not sure what your options are.

 

Problem fixed. Ended up being a faulty relay that controls the Air Pump...


what relay is that, what's the part number, how much is it? where's does it located? can i do it myself?

i have a code for secondary injector, but the car runs fine just the check engine light is annoying..do i have the same problem as you?

i have to disconnect the battery everytime the check engine on came on..after i disconnect it it fine..

 

It may be the relay, however, it also can be your air pump. DO you hear the air pump when you start the car at all ?

What year is your CL ? Did it need to have the recall for the airpump relay this past year ?

 

I Have A 2001 S430 ...how Do I Tell If The AIR Pump Is Working Or Not?
