Title: Fault codes I have never seen!
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 19 May 2015, 17:01:54
P1600 Reprogram or Replace Electronic Control Unit (ECU) (!!!!!!)

P1625 - Replace TCM Battery or similar? (Its not listed on the fault code list in the maintenance guide)

Any ideas? Car runs fine!

Should have said - this is a '52' 3.2 V6 (using a 2.6 engine management system, which I believe is the same)

Seen that. Slap on correct programming

P1625 - Replace TCM Battery or similar? (Its not listed on the fault code list in the maintenance guide)
If that came out of the engine ECU, educate your crap code reader with a hammer.  If it came out of the TCM, its not unheard of, the code points to a driver stage in TCM, but in reality is often a hydro-mechanical fault.  However, if the engine ECU is spouting shite on the CAN, I'd fix the engine ECU's issue first.

P1625 here suggests transmission ECU (http://www.obd-data.com/p1625.html)
P1600 is not quite as cut and dry PCM (Powertrain Control Module) (http://www.obd-data.com/p1600.html)

Hope that helps a little, other than resetting it and checking fuses/earths/wiring - I can't help any more.

Most of the online codes are simply wrong, and best ignored.

That's why we post Omega specific ones in the Guides :)
