Title: PFC Error code help required
Post by: paul C on November 23, 2004, 09:27:18 AM
Hi,

I\'m getting a PFC warning when I switch on the ignition of my canr via the cat over heating light coming on.

When I turn the ignition on the following lights are illuminated. Cat over heating light, engine check light, washer fluid light (third from the left).

I\'ve checked my PFC commander but none of the sensors are highlighted showing an error.

Anybody know what the problem is ? I cant find the PFC manual which lists the ECU error codes. They dont appear to be in the commander manual.

Car starts and runs fine no problems at all.

Thanks

Paul

Its not like what i had last week ?? In the sensor check part of the pfc are any of the voltages on the sensors coloured in. My VTA1 was working but was highlighted as a fault and was too low on the voltage for the pfc to say it was fine. Had to adjust the sensor to fix the problem.

Hope it helps, not really sure about the rest of it !!!! Not just yet.

Just to clarify are the lights only on when you turn on the ignition, or are they on when engine is running? They will light up under ignition only to check warning lights are working.

None of the voltages for the sensors on the commander illuminate when I look at them in the etc sensor check menu.

The lights all go out once the engine is started. When I first installed the pfc the cat light never came on neither did the washer fluid spray thingy light either.
