ok help please

 

does the deet sensor cause the ecu to go to safety boost if so how much to get it changed is it something that can be done myself arghhh my zed is slowly dieing around me

Yes, the dreaded Code34.

 

Its a fair amount of labour involved to replace (and about £100'ish) for the sensor.

 

or you can bypass it in minutes for a few pence

Yes it will put it in Safety boost. Other than that I cant help. Well I could have a guess like normal but we all know it will be wrong! :D

how can i bypass it??

fit a 1meg ohm resistor in-line

you need a 1 megaohm resistor.

lol..any of the above near identical replies should help

Bloody hell I even posted the rite link! Normally I'll post up the how to relocate the PTU guide or something by mistake!

right ok i think i need to chck my ecu again before i start playin with things be back in a few

ok have checked the ecu again and well now im getting code 55 so i think i have an intermitent fault

It will usually go into Safety mode and give error with det sensor after you have driven it and gone into boost. It often is Intermitent though becuase the error can mean that its the det sensor harness that has a bad connection rather then the actual failing of the sensor itself.

 

Take her up the road then test without switching ignition off.

ok will do

That might be because the DET sensor resets itself when the ignition is turned off, I think.

Not sure if the ECU will sore the code for you or not?

 

 

Paul C?????

ok yeah i still have the dreadded code 34 so tmoro its time to buy a resistor and get it bypassed

Or maybe find out why your car is detting and run it in saftey boost untill its fixed? ;)

good point think i will have to do one or the other but just cant afford to get the work done right now and after 9th december im not going to be able to get it done for a long time anyway

Code34 is not detting. Code34 means there is no signal being received by the ECU from the Det sensor. (Det sensor or harness faulty)

:nana2: Once again my help and advise is utter drivel :D ! :nana2: :slap:

hmm ok now im confused arghhhhhh

:nana2: Once again my help and advise is utter drivel :D ! :nana2: :slap:

was starting to get worried about you Nick....Glad your back on form :D

yea, as said - code 34 does NOT mean you have det. just the det sensor circuit is faulty.

 

it puts you into safety boost as it has no way of knowing if you are detting or not

how risky is it to bypass the det sensor it will only be done short term as i hopefully will be getting some work done on the car soon enough

depends if you are detting or not :D

 

if you have an aftermarket chip & boost controller then it does bugger all anyway!! ;)

no chip or boost controller how can i tell if its detting as i dont want to blow my engine ;)

why is that??
