Title: P1700, P1701 codes?
Post by: omegod on 16 September 2010, 11:41:19

Finally caught the codes that have been flicking my EML light on:

P1700
P1701

as well as the one for the camshaft sensor which I guess is the main culprit, can't see what these tow mean though? any ideas

P1700 is either SVS (service) or a Transmission fault code, not unusual for the 2.2 to through up silly codes if the Cam sensor is on its way out.

When mine went it through up loads of codes changed sensor (genuine vx only) had codes cleared and the silly ones never came back.  :y

Are they showing as present or not O  :question

2.2 makes sense, and camshaft sensor makes the gearbox throw wobbles over the CAN bus on those units

Yep it's the 2.2,  had svs and Mil lighting up intermitently.

No codes where showing yesterday but I caught it today when they lit up so they were not stored previously.  :y
