Hi all

 

My car has been off road over winter while I upgrade suspension etc. I have been stating it up about once a month letting it warm up fully by driving it. Have not been boosting it much if at all.

 

I also need to replace the coil pack connectors as the clips are shot and its not making a connection (intermittent misfire). Anyway I used datascan to pin point which cylinder was not firing and it was cylinder 1. Fiddled about with coil pack connector then all ok. Ran an ecu diag and came up code 34 det sensor!!!! Started 4 times with this code.

 

What could have caused this? Been stood for a while? I am a bit worried.

 

Took the car out for a drive, felt fine and boosted ok. Re-tested ecu no error codes.

 

Any help guys?

 

Also could anyone have a look at my data logging from datascan and conzult see if everything looks ok?

 

Thanks

Intermittent connection maybe? I remember the det sensor in my grey Z would throw a code every time I went round a sharp left hand bend.

 

When the engine was removed, the det sensor looked like this:

The Code 34 could well be a break in the wiring harness leading from the det sensor to the ECU. The ECU will retain error codes for up to 50 starts.

I would be tempted to disconnect the det sensor via the plug at the back of the engine and see if there is any difference, that way you would then feel the difference between a working sensor and a non working sensor for future reference.

with det disconnected it will revert and stay in safety boost. and still give out a coe 34

Thanks Guys

 

Guess ill just see how it goes hopefully was just a gremlin.

 

Can anyone take a look at my conzult log file? see if everything looks ok?

 

Cheers
