So my car is now throwing 1008 and 0504. I cant seem to figure out what to do about either one. I included the right up on 0504...doesnt seem to help. Anyone have any ideas?

0504
Diagnostic Trouble Code 0504 points to a problem with the Automatic Transmission Communications line. Pulse signals are exchanged between the Engine Control Module and the Transmission Control Module to assure smooth shifting during hard acceleration or deceleration.

This malfunction is detected when the ECM continuously receives an incorrect voltage from the TCM. Possible causes include...
- Harness or connectors (The communications line circuit between the ECM and the TCM is open or shorted.)
- TCM
- Discharged or faulty battery

 

Have you done anything idiotic like spinning front wheels excessivley on ice, or something similar in the last 48 hours?

 

Nope...I did let a friend of mine drive it last week..he said he had gotten stuck but it wasnt to bad to get it out. Could that be the problem?

 

Could be.

Reset the ECU, and see if it returns. And if it doesn't, then that's was your cause.

 

I get that one all the time. My manumatic is intercepting the signal and mixing up the relay in conjunction with the CCM

 

So if it does come back what does it mean, and what should I do about 1008 code?

 

If it comes back, post back. I doubt it will though.

1008 is an EVAP code... Gte a haynes, it'll help you out.

 

I have the haynes manual...and I read the write up on it. I know how to check it...but I wanna know if there is any other way to repair it...or how much it will cost to replace.

I looked around, and I cant seem to find a place that offers prices on it...or even a place that has it in the parts listing, and I dont have the search feature for the .org.

 

Theyre not from OT so they wouldn't know what that meant.

 

It's semi-obvious

 

not if he asks questions like that...
