Help
Coming back from road trip. Engine light and gear indicator lights blinking car running rough...any opinions helpful.
|
getting the codes read would probably be the best course of action.
|
Hear any strange sound?
|
+1 for code read blinking [D5] light = problem with trans and you will need a scanner capable of reading those codes
|
Had a short. Bad ignition coil but here's the kicker. Went to remove bad coil and tube that goes into plug was melted...how the hell am I gonna get melted plastic out of there???
|
Why I asked if any strange noise is because the problem can be caused by a spark plug that has backed out and the heat has caused the coil pack to melt, esp. #5 cylinder.
There's also been problems with a melted coil(s) some due to the PCM that has had water intrusion from a clogged condensate drain causing the coil to overheat. Some have taken hours to clean out the head, others have had to remove/replace the head. |
