jacko Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 It's going into the garage on Tuesday so hopefuly the problem will be sorted. I just had a thought with regards to the engine light- would this feature still be present on a Blitz Access ECU? Or could this explain why no light comes on when i try to read the error codes?

AMG Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Not sure if you still have this problem but try connecting the terminals used for the VVTI. That worked for my Blitz access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMG Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 its the same as ching for the pre VVTI but using E1 and Tc in the diagnostic port next the the throttle body. I have not been able to get the error codes for mine (long story) until the other day i thought i would try the other terninal. Hey presto!

jacko Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 Ive found out why i couldnt read the fault codes - the soldering has had it on the little light cluster with the engine light on it - so i tweaked the wires and got it to work. Just got a regular flash, so no fault codes stored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay_vr6 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Jacko i've been having your problem, cylinder no1 bad, all coilpack and clips fine, I started to push and pull a little on the injector and suddenly all is well, so maybe its worth having a lil nose by the injector wiring ?

miko_supra Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I had a really annoying missfire issue when i had mine a while back...Heres the tests that i did... Changed Spark Plugs Inspect the threads that the spark plugs sit in and make sure nothing is stuck in there and check the general surroundings. Change the coil pack clips Compression test all cylinders Run the engine at night with the spark plug cover off and look for any visible sparks where the spark could be shorting out somewhere Inspect coil packs-This is when i found the problem on mine... Tiny little cracks on a few of the shafts, So i cleaned up all of the coil packs and put araldite into all of the cracks and then coated the outside in electrical insulating gel. That fixed the problem in mine, basically the spark was shorting out through the cracks at high RPM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
