I had to wash my engine today and afterwards started having engine problems. Check engine light and TCS light were on. The car was running fine but would stall out every so often but start right back up. I have a scanner and pulled those codes and they relate to the TDC sensor intermitent interruption, which probably accounts for the engine limiting revs at 5500 RPM (safe mode?). Anyway, my guess is the TDC sensor got wet, but could it be that it shorted out and has to be replaced? Or maybe it will dry out overnight and wont be a problem tomorrow?

I need opinions and experience with these codes please, anyone?

Today I started the car and let it warm up for a while, then I floored it and it's still limiting at 5500 rpm, but no codes. Then after a while longer I turned the a/c on and the engine started sputtering as if it was about to stall, but recovered itself and then came the tcs and cel lghts on. The only code I got was P0132 which relates to a high voltage in the O2 sensor bank1, whatever that means.
Can anyone help me find out what could possibly be wrong...how to troubeshoot these symptons?
Thanks

This is driving me crazy...this afternoon I went for a ride and when the cel came on the code I got was p0131 which is LOW voltage on the O2 sensor1 bank1...and doesn't go away when I erase it...it just comes back on.
I'm clueless here...
Can anybody help out pls?

Are you still stuck in safe mode (ie 5500 rpm max) Reset your ECU.

You may want to check out the front o2 sensor connection and see if its dry.

Thanks fsttyms, I'm still stuck @ 5500 rpm. How do you reset the ECU? I have a scanner and tried to erase the code, but it just comes back on...is there any other way to reset it? And where is the front O2 sensor located so I can check he connection?
Thanks again

Anyone?

I have the same problem on my 1997 CL 3.0
Did you only reset the ECU to fix this???

Thanks

Your scanner could reset the ECU for you ...read the manual .
