Engine Light

Post by C0RSA »

So i have got this problem at the moment with the engine light i plugged in my laptop and read the error codes it come up with CrankShaft Sensor & 02 Sensor i have now replaced both of these and the engine light still comes on and i still loose power and this happens at any speed after driving for about 10mins so i pluggged my laptop back in and it said 02 Sensor again so i took the 1 that was in their back and got a new 1 to replace it and the problem is still happening and the laptop is still saying 02 Sensor anyone got any ideas what could be the problem?

have you reset/deleted the fault codes?
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

Can you not "Clear fault codes" with your reader. With the readers that plug into a laptop there should be this option somewhere along the line. On mine you clear the fault codes before reading the new ones otherwise it just adds to the list.

How long have you left the battery disconected for ??? it needs a least 16 hours to reset the ecu.
