Scantool code troubleshooting.

Hey guys, you might have read my other thread about the issues I'm currently facing on my FD. I just got a scantool check done on the car today to see if it had any issue codes in the log. It came up with these 3:-
1) 46.Sol Vlv (VRIS2/Charge Relief)
2) 51.Fuel pump Relay - open or short - I believe this was from when the engine was flooded two weeks ago.
3) 15. HO2S/HO2S(LH) - Inactivation.

Have you guys dealt with any of these fault codes? If so, how can I deal with them? apart from number 2.

Regards

the trouble I can see is that you are referring to a "scantool" and Frankly I am not familiar with such a device for these cars.

Your post count is now sufficient that you can post a thread in the 3rd Gen Specific Section and there are more resources available for you there.
This section is a Mixed Bag of cars and guys often overlook the Section..
It is like the Dust ball under the bed..lol!

I didn't know any of the FD's came with OBD-II...

In any event. The 3rd is just the O2 sensor.

The first is the charge relief, which is used for sequential turbo operation. With it not functioning, it can cause a whole number of weird boost issues.

Get a copy of the factory service manual, and test the valve/wiring. Although, it sounds like you have a lot more issues than just this from reading your other post.

You may only find limited help as none of the U.S. FDs came with OBD-II. As I understand it, the OBD-II requirement for all cars '96+ (in the U.S.) was another factor that killed the 7 in the U.S. The last model sold here was the '95.

Good luck, though. Maybe one of the Aussie, NZ, Japan, etc. guys may know more details about your code errors.
