Found code 2142; knock sens: Where is the engine light or plug for testengine ???? Re:

[Denis]

  Just got the code:
  2142

  Begin the  sequence: Light On for 2.5 secondes
  2 flashes, .5 sec each = 2
  1 flashes, .5 sec each = 1
  4 flashes, .5 sec each = 4
  2 flashes, .5 sec each = 2


        2142 Knock sensor Open or short circuit, Defective sensor Check sensor and wiring Symptom: Timing retarded, High fuel consumption, power loss, 

        Exactly what my car s doing. It takes at least 50% more full, no power......

        I can see the light trought the tunel :-)

    Subject: Finally CEL ok Re: Where is the engine light or plug for testengine ???? Re:


      Well all, found the right circuit http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/trouble_shooting/100ecuf.html as it says there is no brown,,,, connector under the dash,, nothing to plug a CEL.... for a 100Q 1989 2.3 engine NA.

      The only way is to make the circuit.

      So i used a used fuse (broken) plugged on the pump relay top, route wires to a switch placed close to the rear windows defoog switch....Routed wires to the CEL in the dash....

      Works great. I can see the Check engine light blink when i start the engine.....  when i  m trying to get fault codes..

      Next step:

      Read those ton of codes :-),,, there is the less i can say ,,, there is a ton of code mmmmm lots of work to do guys.

      Youpi ouraaaa.....
