any help would be greatful. My wife was out today when engine check light came on for around 10 secs then went out. I connected geen conncters and single black one to do engine check, did not flash engine check light stayed solid.Checked fluid levels & found transmission level on the low side.Could this be the reason the engine light came on.Also heard a leak (possible air) from what i thought was was intercooler pipe but found this to be blanked off dont know why.Only had the car for about a month it is now my marmite car love it when its right but cant stand it when its not.

 

hiya mate model and year please

 

Hi its a turbo 2000 on an x reg 2001

 

I thought you were only meant to connect the black connectors, not the green ones to get the 'check engine' light to flash, because when there's no faults, you get the 5 flashes to tell you there's no fault codes?

 

I thought you connected both together but im not sure!! but there was no flashing at all may be i will try just the single black one

 

hi mate,
check this link on how to read fault codes,

hope this helps.
cheers gar

 

Hi cheers just connected single connecter and got 2 error codes 23 & 32 thanks again

 

Just checked belive 23 is maf sensor and 32 is a/f sensor #1 dont know what this is or where it is can anyone help.

 

hi,
23 - mass air flow sensor circuit (maf)

according to the codes i had off a friend 32 came up 3 times ,

oxygen sensor (o2),
a/f sensor #1 system
a/f sensor #2 system

i think all three codes are to do with the same thing, the oxy sensor as when i have google'd subaru a/f sensor it comes up with o2 sensor.
on the early classics the sensor was on the down pipe but i wouldnt know where it/they are located on the later model's.

hope this of some help to you.

 

Thanks alot i will have a look tonight after work cheers again
