TD Paperclip test results
« on: 04 March 2009, 14:28:51 »
Just done the paperclip test on the TD for the first time to:

a) to see if it worked
b) to see if it brought up any particular faults

Well, it did work and I got the following sequence:

12  12  12
19  19  19
95  95  95

12  12  12
..... repeat again

12 is a mystery as it doesn't list this code on TB's index. Any ideas?
19 is Incorrect RPM Signal - is this because the engine is off?
95 is Output Amplifier Defect - what does this mean - anyone?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!  :y

Right you are - I didn't spot that note in the instructions! Thanks  :y

No ideas on 95 though?

I know this is the case on the 2.5V6 but wasn't sure if the same applied for the TD. Oh, well I had better look into that then  :(

19 is still a crank sensor issue on TD.  Generally reliable though.  Check its fully seated, and the connector on the sensor is fully home.

You can probably guess what I am going to ask next - but where is the crank sensor on the TD? Ta :y

under the starter motor.  Intake off, may possibly have to take starter motor out.  Can get to it from underneath, but working blind...
