Hi Joel, I have since tried 2 sensors now but still have the same error code appearing. As you say, it is more than likely the harness itself as it does look a tad heat baked and a bit tired. As for the fan itself, I have since disconnected the connector several times, and on each occasion the auxiliary fan has kicked in. I have checked several connectors so far and they are all looking a bit worse for wear to be honest. Looks like a new harness may be the order of the day as you say.

So, at cold tap temperature ohms resistance is around the 2.0 ohms After running the sensor under a hot tap, probably achieving around 70 deg's C approximately the reading is around 0.80 ohms So seems to be reacting in the right direction. Having said that though, I think I will invest in a new sensor for what they cost.

Hi Joel, Mainly driving it, although it does do the same thing from a static restart also.

Hi Andrew, To be honest, no I haven't as yet. Thanks for the link, I'll test it asap.

Hi Joel, I am resetting the ECU through DataScan. I have tried both with the engine running and just with the ignition on. Each time I look at the error codes after resetting, all appears fine, code 55

Well, after several resets and several restarts, I still keep getting code 13. The only sort of running issues I have are.. 1. an intermittent misfire 2. almost stalls when cold coming off throttle, okay when warm 3. hot start issues, starts eventually when warm, much better when cold 4. plugs appear blackened

Brilliant work there mate. :thumbup1:

Inspiring. :drool:

And the name of the Magazine is? Just me I guess, but I would need to know a little more before entrusting either one of the aforementioned Zeds. No offence.

They look stunning mate, if they perform as well as they look they will be awesome.

Cheers Jeff, sounds like an old code as you say. I have just done the reset as you advised, i'll check again tomorrow. :thumbup1:

One additional question that springs to mind is, could this be holding me in safety boost?

Thought the same Jeff, but with everything running and the connector removed, the fan kicks in. I will as you say, do a reset and check again after tomorrow's run. I have noticed a lumpy/intermittent tickover of late, sort of an irregular misfire so to speak. Also, I do have a slightly lazy start when warm, but as yet, no stalling though.

Thanks Andrew, I will check the sensor out as the directions suggest. My only concern is that it does not go into any detail with regards to the correct resistance etc; I understand that if there was an open circuit the cooling fan would kick in, but this is not the case. So far I have checked that the sensor is receiving 5v's, well, 4.8v to be precise. The resistance across the terminals of the sensor itself is 478 ohms, but she is a tad warm still. I will remove and clean and check for faults as described.

:lol:

Could this be right? Surely I would of experienced some sort of symptom?

Stunning depth of colour.

Ditto..... Inspiring.

Well impressed.

:happybday: Ash.

Just put some 97 octane in... :biggrin:

Anyone have any of the various interior fixing screws and loose collar nuts etc' going spare? the Olive Green type. (some may be Black) Mainly missing some of the nuts that hold down the some of the rear boot plastics along with some of the self tapping style hex head screws. Any denominations welcome, happy to pay.

Hey Russ, Would like to see how this is done when it comes to the bearing change mate. Will you be posting any pictures etc'?

Agreed. I can both sympathise and empathise having done similar myself. Respect. :thumbup1: I would recommend a good mask when welding galvanised steel, I believe the gas is somewhat poisonous. Just a thought, are you contemplating any bracing? The rigidity of the shell is predominantly based around the sills themselves.

Struggling to get the courtesy light to switch off when closing the boot lid. Shuts and locks okay, but the light stays on unless I really slam the the lid excessively. I'm guessing there is a switch somewhere, can someone point me in the right direction please? Maybe just needs a little TLC.
