I have put the datascan on and still have the code 34 with 0 starts. Does the cable that goes down towards the back of the block towards the actually end up at the sensor. is it deffo the female con. that goes to the ECU ?

Yes, the cable that goes to the block goes to the sensor, the other in the loom goes to the ecu.

here you go:

Yep, that's how i have wired it, it still shows code 34 0 starts when checked on the datascan. I dont think it's in safe mode as it runs ok and appears to boost. perhaps the cable to the ECU is damaged. i suppose the only way to truely remedy this is to place the 1k resisitor in the ECU between pins 23 and 50.

That means the problem (the bad connection) is between the connector and the ECU, and yes the best way is to wire the resistor at the ECU. This is a more favourable method at all times IMO.

 

if your getting code34 then it is in Safety mode.

Cheers fellas, back to the drawing board, resistor at the ECU end then.

1 meg resistor now in position between 23 and 50 the ECU loom. Cleared the memory and now reads code 55, no errors. Thanks Groover, again your info was invaluable, now I can see the logic in working back to the ECU.
