Paper Clip Error Codes
« on: 23 February 2008, 14:57:53 »
Just done a paperclip test on the 2.5 v6 and it came back with the following codes... is there a full list anywhere on here?

21 Throttle Position Sensor High Voltage
73 MAF Low Voltage
57 Idle Speed Control Valve (ISCV) Interruption

Are the explanations correct (searched them online) and any potential solutions?

Could these be caused by an air leak??

Thanks :)

I've had some MAF and IACV faults......blanking the EGR solved them!

Not the exact faults you have, think i had the 57, and a 74, Maf high voltage

Didnt have them both together though, seemed to be one or the other.

Concentrate on the TPS to start with, the others might well be rogue

Check the connector and wires for damage.

Look at throttle body. Left side you have all the throttle/cruise cables etc. Right side, you have a single electrical connector.  This is the sensor :)

Oh...might be the bit I swapped over then when I swapped the EGR/plenum from another car to try and rectify the problems, had to keep the sensor because it was different on the mini facelift engine I have to the 95 elite engine the plenum/EGR came off...any way to test if the sensor is faulty other than swap it for a known good one?
