The car in question is a 91 Eclipse GST.... i know its not a VR4 technically, but you guys are very smart and helpful!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worthy.gif
I was able to finally test the cable for the diag port, and it works. Found a palm IIIc sadly the battery is dead so i have to run an extension cord out to the car so the damn thing keeps power...if the power is lost, it loses everything.
Issue: CEL
Using the MMCD program, i was able to find out what codes were being thrown.
14 -Throttle position sensor
21 -Engine coolant temperature sensor
With MMCD running, and car off, the TPS was showing a 3.5% load. i would push in the pedal to the floor and the most it would do is a 96.5% load.
With me having multiple sensors around, i reset the ecu, waited 5mins, swapped in another TPS.... waited for Code to kick, once again it was TPS
The sensor was not connected to Throttle body and was showing a 0.0% load, with throttle to the floor, it would go to 99.6%.
Since the code 21 -which is caused by a split wire. (once i fix that with the connector that toybreaker sent, thx btw!) i hope to see that code disappear again.
Any ideas on why i cannot get rid of the 14 code? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif It is possible that i have bad tps sensor(s). A new one runs 128$.
Also, i will use a circuit tester (light) to see if the line has a break in it.
-Thanks!
