    True but if you buy a fault finder that is what the instructions tell you to do? and the adaptor for vauxhall is a bit of wire with the pins on the end to fit in the plug

    Hi mate and welcome!!! This should help you! ;) Engine ECU fault codes 2.0 8v, 16v, Ecotech, Turbo, V6 Information from Bob Rawle Dis-engage the diagnostics plug from its socket. This is positioned at the rear of the engine bay on the passengers side on cavalier/calibra’s, on the astra3 it’s in the fusebox, and on vectra’s around the handbrake and omega on the panel by the fusebox. It has 10 pins. Short pins A & B to read the engine ecu codes. Brown & Brown/yellow 16 pin connectors, On the Vectra / Omega short pins 4 & 6 Start the engine, management warning light will start to flash as follows. The code 12 is first flashed three times, this is a marker. If a code is stored it is then flashed three times. The code 12 is then flashed three times, this is a separator. If a 2nd code is stored it is then flashed three times or the first code is repeated. The code 12 is then flashed three times, this is a separator. etc Once all codes have been displayed then stop engine and remove wire. To clear codes you should disconnect the battery for a minimum of 10 minutes and then re-connect. This also has the effect of resetting the ECU parameters to their defaults and forces the adaptive learning circuits to start again. Within approx. 200 miles the ECU will have adapted. 12 Diagnosis Initiation / separator 13 Oxygen sensor - open circuit 14 Coolant temperature sensor - voltage low 15 Coolant temperature sensor - voltage high 16 Knock signal circuit - no voltage change 17 Knock signal circuit 2 - no voltage change (V6) 18 Knock control module (ECU) 19 Incorrect RPM signal (Crankshaft sensor - incorrect signal) 21 Throttle position sensor - voltage high 22 Throttle position sensor - voltage low 23 Knock sensor - out of range 24 Speed Sensor (MPH) 25 Injector 1 - voltage high 26 Injector 2 - voltage high 27 Injector 3 - voltage high 28 Injector 4 - voltage high 29 Injector valve 5 - voltage high (Fuel pump relay voltage low) 31 No engine RPM signal Engine not running (Crankshaft Sensor - No Signal) 32 Fuel pump relay - voltage high 33 Map Sensor (Voltage High) 34 Map Sensor (Voltage Low) 35 Idle Control Valve Stepper Motor (No Idle Speed Control) 38 Oxygen circuit - voltage low (weak) 39 Oxygen circuit - voltage high (rich) 41 1 gear ident switch - voltage low C20LET OR EST Line Coil Cylinder 2 & 3 (Voltage High) M2.8 / XEV 42 1 gear ident switch - voltage high C20LET OR EST Line Coil Cylinder 1 & 4 (Voltage High) M2.8 / XEV 43 Linear EGR System XEV 44 Oxygen circuit - voltage low (weak) 45 Oxygen circuit - voltage high (rich) 47 Linear EGR Position XEV 48 Battery voltage - low 49 Battery voltage - high 51 ECU faulty (memory failure) 52 Check engine light - voltage high 53 Fuel pump relay - voltage low 54 Fuel pump relay - voltage high 55 ECU faulty (Hardware fault) 56 Idle air control - voltage low (or high !?!) 57 Idle air control - voltage high (or low !?!) 61 Fuel tank vent valve - voltage low 62 Fuel tank vent valve - voltage high 63 EST Line Coil Cylinder 2 & 3 (Voltage Low) M2.8/XEV 64 EST Line Coil Cylinder 1 & 4 (Voltage Low) M2.8/XEV 65 Idle CO potentiometer - voltage low 66 Idle CO potentiometer - voltage high 67 Idle position switch - voltage low (idle position switch not opening) 69 Intake air temperature - voltage low 71 Intake air temperature - voltage high 72 Full position switch - voltage high (full load not opening) 73 Air flow sensor - voltage low 74 Air flow sensor - voltage high 75 Torque control - voltage low (Transmission Switch) 76 Torque control - continuous (Transmission Switch) 79 Full load inhibitor - voltage low (Traction Control Signal) 81 Injector valve 1 - voltage low 82 Injector valve 2 - voltage low 83 Injector valve 3 - voltage low 84 Injector valve 4 - voltage low 85 Injector valve 5 - voltage low 86 Injector valve 6 - voltage low V6 87 A/C cut-off relay - voltage low 88 A/C cut-off relay - voltage high 92 Cam shaft sensor failure XEV 93 Hall sensor - voltage low (Quad Driver Module) 94 Hall sensor - voltage high 95 Hot start valve - voltage low 96 Hot start valve - voltage high 97 Ignition/Injection cut off - voltage high (Traction Control Signal) 113 Boost control out of range 114 Boost pressure Idle above upper limit 115 Boost pressure Full below lower limit 116 Boost pressure Full below upper limit 117 Wastegate valve - voltage low 118 Wastegate valve - voltage high

    My 130 went and thats a tin top with manual steering!!!
  8. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    OOOOPPPPSSSSS!!!! :Ha You were popular then!!? My mum used to have a 1.8L mk3, had it from around 30k got rid of it at 170k still going!! (and VERY well to as Chutney will vouch! I used to kill SRis in it (on L plates!!! :Ha :Ha :Ha :Ha :Ha :Ha))
  9. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    Yeah what I mean is that its called "MK[glow=red,2,300]2[/glow]cav.com" and yeah a MK3 is a very good car all round and I have had several as daily drivers and probabally always will have!!!! this will be my DD for this winter! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
  10. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    Yeah even though its a mk3 and not a mk2 someone should help you out :Ha ;D
  11. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    He worked there when the nova sports were still being sold, so he would have built some in his time at the dealers! I'm sure Chutney will explain a bit more in depth than me! :Ha
  12. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    Do you do evening classes Chutney?
  13. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    If you mean the engine from a 1.3 SR Nova then if yours has the pierburg carb then it is the same as the SR! ;)
  14. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    Most likley a 5 speed as I had a D reg 87 Black 1.3L Saloon and that was a 5 speed
  15. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
    I think there were about 17 consecutive F platers and then a few more out of sequence but there are alot of stories around that are just rumours! ???
  16. Ralph replied to a post in a topic in NEW USERS
