OK, so my CEL came on yesterday, did the diagnosis today, and this is what i got:

1 3 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor
3 4 Knock Sensor
4 1 Intake Air Temperature Sensor
5 4 A/T Conrol Unit Signal to ECU
11 2 Revolution Sensor
11 6 Improper Shifting to 4th Gear

...now, besides the KS and IATS, what the hell do i do with all the other codes? i have already looked in the stickes and searched on the web, no help there. someone please help so i can get my max back in shape!! thanks in advance...

Reset the codes and see which ones come back. The air temperature sensors are easy to check - d/l the service manual, it has the right resistance reading for the sensors at various temperatures.

 

Improper Shifting to 4th Gear? Thats an interesting one

 

ECTS probably means you have to change the ECTS

 

if i wanted a ******** remark, i would have asked for one the ones in specific i am referring to are the revolution sensor (what is it and what does it do) and the improper shifting to fourth gear. i have looked on the web for the revo. sensor and couldnt find any info on it. so any help without being an ******* would be great

 

^Alright, someone has an attitude..How do you expect to be helped with a mouth like that? Calm down and lighten up..

go read a couple of "how to's"

 

im sorry, i just dont have time for immaturity. anyways...i already looked in the how to's for a few good hours, and havent found anything on the revolution sensor or the improper shifting situation. anyone's help would really be greatly appreciated

go there, thats for the revo code

 

If my CEL suddenly came on and had all of those codes at once I would take it to a dealer that I knew had a non-shady service department. They are out there. I would at least take it to a mechanic you trust before you start installing sensors left and right. I would bet that your knock sensor is probably bad if it hasn't been changed yet but when I changed mine it was the only code that the ecu had in it. All those codes all at once you cant trust any single one of them IMO. I haven't even heard of a couple of those codes.

 

thanks for the link!!! i couldnt find that before. anyone know what that improper shifting could be? a problem with my tranny maybe?

 

Quote: This malfunction is detected when the A/T does not shift into fourth gear position or the torque convertor clutch does not lock up as instructed by the A/T control unit. This is not caused by electrical malfunction (circuits open or shorted) but by mechanical malfunction such as control valve sticking, improper solenoid valve operation, malfunctioning oil pump, or torque converter clutch, etc. Hope this helps
