Dude...you are the man!!!

But you forget to mention the year... they are different between pre 99 and 99 onwards.. those codes are for 99 cars...

you forgot:

53 immobiliser
85 charge



J.

 

And tomorrows lesson is...

The 98 Codes... lol

J.

 

what are you two on about !!

 

Tal...

If there any fualts detected by the ECU (ie faulty sensors), they are normally logged in the ECU memory...

There are two ways of reading the memory:

1. Connect the Subaru Select Monitor and read them
2. Connect the read-memory plugs under the dashboard and translate the MIL flashes into the above numbers..

That will tell you where the fault lies... if there is one...

J.

 

oh

 

Jay,


aw shucks - the secret is out now.

Beneath the steering column there are four connectors - black, male/female and green male/female.

To read the fault memory

Connect the black ones and turn the ignition on. If the check engine light flashes morse code at you, open the bonnet and go and see if it still there

The long pulses are the decimals and the short pulses the digits - as in FLAAAAAAAAAASH, FLAAAAAAAAAAAAASH, FLASH, FLASH, FLASH PAUSE is a code 23 which I have seen lots of in the last week.

A non-fault car will flash evenly and continuously.

Cheers,

David

PS This sounds like something that should be in the FAQ - if it hasn't already made it into the latest version (haven't checked for a while)

Dave/Rannoch...

I wonder where you got that info from ?

What secret..*cough*splutter*... lol

J.

 

THAT'S IT
HOW the hell do you guys know all this. is this from books that i should acquire !!.or is there any websites that i am missing !!

sam

 

So that's what they're for.

What are the green ones for then?

 

Sam,

there is much more interesting things you can do with the connectors - one of which is to check the boost solenoid for example, reset the ECU, properly, clear ECU memory.

Buy Training WRX from Scoobymania, that is one source of the information - and it is clear that there are number users of this site that know the secret black magic

David

 

Liam...

Plug them in and see...

I dont think you will be very impressed with the performance... lol

J.

 

<B>DOH!</B>

No go on what does it do? I would check but James won't let me hook them up on his and I've got an EVO so obviously can't do it to mine.

Liam

does any one have a number for Scoobymania. ro a website. how much does it cost? i am definitly getting one.

 

Perhaps I should get one of these books too..

Are they any good ?

J.

 

Trainning WRX - Is a good book to buy and get information from.

Mr Steve Bijok is a young and up coming tuner.... smart guy.

If u like Subaru ... U will love this book. Is very informative and worth buying.

So go and grab the book ... but .. there is no trouble code inside.

If u r looking for trouble code ... buy Autodata book .... hahahahaha ... is all in there.

Cheers ..... rite Firefox????

 

Sam.

Our website is currently being constructed by the Webmaster himself, should be on line imminently.

Phone Ben on 0118 981 0832 and he will sort you out a Training WRX book (£25.00 + VAT).

Mike.

 

DYNT...

shhhh...dont give anyway anymore secrets...

They might be quicker at reading than us..and realise we are still on page 2 of "How an impreza works"....they might get to chapter 2..and know more than us..

J.

 

Ohohohohoh ... dear me.

Errrrr .... sorry Firefox ... I wont do it again.

Got to page 3 already... by next week .. I will be in page 4. I'm faster then U anyway.

lol.....lol

 

Hey Bro...

You might be faster..

But I am the funny one..

J.

 

Mike Tuckwood,

Do you really mean to add VAT onto the price of the "Training WRX" _BOOK_?

Moray

 

Jay,

you're wrong - I've been plugging them in lots and am now really impressed by the performance - at least it will start when it's cold now!

David

 

Howdy,
I'm the bloke with the Type R Liam's been on about.

Leave the wires as I found em is all I can say...........If it aint broke dont fix it
errgh...or something like that
RR.

 

Err, non technical bloke here.

If I plug these two black "things" together on my MY98 I assume the engine light will begin to flash. So according to the advise above if it flashes "smoothly" then all is sweetness and light, if it flashes in "morse" then there may be a problem that I am not currently aware of ( told you I wasn't technical ). If this is the case can someone let me know, and if possible what the "codes" are for a MY98.

Cheers

Yex

 

Moray.

No.

Well spotted, got to stop typing in auto pilot mode.

Mike.

 

Liam
the green connectors are for................oh i have cramp in my finger
lee

 

lol

 

Yex,


you got it in one - I think Firefox may feel generous enough soon to bring us lesson 2

That is the MY98 codes - beware they are different.

Cheers,

Another non-technical bloke

(You should see all my emails to Jay - cheers Jay )

 

Howdy peeps...

Ok.. Lesson Two.... lol

98 Codes:

11 Crank sensor
12 Starter
13 Camshaft
21 Coolant Temp
22 Knock
23/45 Pressure
24 Idle Control solenoid
26 Air intake
31 TPS
32 O2
33 Vehicle speed
35 Purge
49 CO resistor
51 Neutral position
53 Immobiliser
54 Air intake

Lesson 3 is how to read them....

flash...flaaaaaaash.....flash....flaaaaaaash... lol

J.

 

U can even make the engine perform better .. at least 15% improvement on the torque by working ... on the ...... *something got to do wit the trouble code connector* .... fast buck.

R U all ready for the 2000 onwards trouble code???? Only for the 7S type of ECU wit 3 connector .......


Cheers.
