Omega General Help / Re: Error codes 0170 & 0173

Cheers buddy, I just tried to call you
Welcome to OOF
Question.......did the new codes appear immediately after the work was done or some time after?
The definitions are as follows:
P0170 - Fuel trim malfunction (Bank 1)
P0173 - Fuel trim malfunction (Bank 2)
Now, this can be affected by the exhaust!
Also, worth checking fuel filter, inlet system for airleaks etc.
Fuel trim codes are generated when the ECU can't compensate the fuel / air ratio against the readings the Lambdas are giving.
When are the codes generated? Cold start or normal operating temperature?
Best person to speak to would be Kevin Wood.
What is the root cause of the fuse blowing?
Check fuse 15, (feed to instruments) my omega blows this fuse randomly, still trying to find out why.
I wonder what the alternator charging voltage was.....
It sounds very electrical!
