CE Light 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Mark on  Sat Sep 18 13:31 CST 2004 [RELATED]


My 95 went into limp mode and after a restart is normal again. Car does this periodically. But this time I now get a Check Engine light. The CE light comes on after 10 seconds when the car is started and gets cleared when I turn the car off. So I cant get any codes off the computer. Car drives normal. What could it be? Any ideas?

    You have to turn the key to ON to get the codes. If the CE light came on it will set a code for you to find. Go read it and let us know what it is. If the tranny went in to limp mode did you get the arrow on the dash panel? If you got the arrow then there will be a code stored in the A1 slot of the DTC boxes. Engine stuff is in the A2 slot. Good luck.

      I figured it out. The CE light was coming on after 7 seconds after turning the engine on. It was coming on from a code in abs. Right and left rear sensors. But the whole thing stemmed from me shifting into 3rd to slow down without braking (autotrans) PNP went into limp mode. Also set a trans code.. gear ratio. (makes sense) and the abs. Cleared codes (which unplugging battery overnight doesnt do - guess only works for A2.
      Well anyways been a couple weeks since then and no problems and no codes.

    Try to disconnecting the battery. Maybe you have some code thats not showing up. I'm not sure what it could be. I believe the CE light only comes on for the A2 slot. I've never tried to get codes myself while the engine is running. Good luck.
