Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
Bit of background please?My VU Ute with 200k 2nd motor isn’t cranking by the key, when key is turned comes up with serv. error, the car cranks when i bridge the relay but has no spark.
no idea i got it with the second motor in and with the issue, old mate reckons it went for a couple weeks but then stopped but i don’t know how much i believe himBit of background please?
Have you just fitted the 2nd motor?
If so, did the motor have its own engine loom, or did you you fit your engine loom of the old motor?
What was the 2nd engine out of?
You've just recently bought it?no idea i got it with the second motor in and with the issue, old mate reckons it went for a couple weeks but then stopped but i don’t know how much i believe him
Scan it for error codes.yea had it for a week
i’ll let you know the codes tomorrow so you can point me in the right direction, i know sone of the codes have un, some have h, and some have hc or something along those lines, what do they stand for?serv error means the communications network is down
so scan tool probs wont work
use display diagnostics, go to error codes and report back
Trip computer diagnostic codes
Hold mode and up arrow then turn key to on or start
Release buttons
then
Press Mode = Dash Part Number - e.g. 1731
Press Mode = Mode Switch Voltage - e.g. BV - - - 5.0
Press Mode = Battery Voltage - e.g. V 11.8
Press Mode = Petrol Sender Voltage - e.g. FUEL 02.6
Press Mode = LPG Sender Voltage - e.g. VL 5.0
Press Mode = Remaining Fuel - e.g. 38L
Press Mode = Instantaneous Fuel (Liters per Hour) - e.g. 12.8 L/H
Press Mode = Engine Coolant Temp - e.g. 63 C
Press Mode = Vehicle Speed - e.g. 45 KM/H
Press Mode = Tachometer - e.g. 2380
Press Mode = Park Lamps Switch - e.g. P OFF
Press Mode = Dash Trouble Codes - e.g. t 00 (Press up/down to scroll through any codes, these are not PCM, ABS, etc codes)
Press Mode = Dash Test - All gauges will move, lights will come on and buzzer will sound.
Turn key off will revert to normal dash
Dash trouble codes
Format is t then code number then history then current some have nu which I cant remember but believe was not used
Eg
t00-- is fuel gauge sender open circuit no history and no current faults
t16h- is abs history codes but no current fault
00 Fuel gauge sender unit — open circuit
01 Fuel gauge sender unit — short circuit
02 Fuel gauge sender unit — intermittent
03 Fuel gauge sender unit — open circuit

26 Internal fault
H = history. C = current.i’ll let you know the codes tomorrow so you can point me in the right direction, i know sone of the codes have un, some have h, and some have hc or something along those lines, what do they stand for?
Mine has 11, 17, and 20, how would i go about fault finding further or fixing these?serv error means the communications network is down
