FAULT CODES  (return to top)

To erase the fault code memory, first make sure that the fault code 1000 (short blink and light goes out for a long period) is present,
then depress the throttle fully for at least 10 seconds.
Reactivate the fault code memory as described below
 and check for the 1444 code (no faults stored).
1) Turn the ignition switch to the 'engine run' position.
2) Depress the gas pedal to the floor 5 times. (bank1 for M70)
2-1) Depress the gas pedal to the floor 6 times. (bank2 for M70)
The CHECK ENGINE light will blink out the FAULT CODES starting with the lowest number first.
These FAULT CODES consist of 4 digits each separated by a short pause
(ie. blink pause blink blink pause blink pause blink translates as 1 2  1 1).
