I have driven this car daily for the last 50,000klms and its fine except for problem starting in th emorning when engine cold. It cant be that bad.....
It behaves quite well apart from the above mentioned issue.

Thanks'

That may well be true , but to avoid something more serious , get it looked at , if my check engine light was flashing I would surely get it checked .

Have you actually checked your engine to make sure it hasn't been replaced by two dudes in a sauna?

What he said above.. Check engine light could relate to anything but if things still work and the car doesn't hear up I would say one of the sensors may be playing up.

They all flash when you bridge out pin 5 and 6 on the obd connector. Its not like the engine light has ever come on im more searching for a problem/issue if it was major one would think it would automatically come on when it finds a major issue.

After a brief moment of confusion thinking you were in a VT for some reason... I realised it was a VX and the flash sequences made sense

There are two codes

0122 which is flashed 3 times.
0122 = V6 PCM Throttle Postion Sensor Low Voltage
This one should cause the MIL to come on when the fault is set.

0200 is flashed 2 and a bit times (the video ended)
0200 = V6 PCM Injector Voltage Monitor Fault
This one will not cause the MIL to illuminate

Each DTC will flash three times, then go back to the first one after the last stored code has been displayed. So potentially there are other codes set?

HI Vbhero

Thanks for your help. The engine light has never illuminated I have replaced the TPS is this just a fault that now needs to be cleared and aslo with the injectors is this a computer fault or can it be caused by blocked injectors.

Thanks'
