    Default Help stocky fix his car

    ok well lately my car has been having a few problems. Its getting horrible economy at 19L/100km, its been stalling at the lights after pulling to a stop, and the vehicle speed sensor is doing nothing. It used to idle roughly but thats been fixed i think by putting the bellmouth back in.
    Anyyways, here are the details
    Error Codes -
    13 - Oxygen Sensor
    24 - Vehicle Speed Sensor
    22 - TPS too low (was getting a reading of -9.9)

    Ive taken three tests using winaldl. 1st was just stationary with the engine off, 2nd was engine on and stationary, and 3rd one was me driving around the block.
    If anyone can understand these and can spot any problems let me know.

    Any other suggestions for my other problems would also be great.

    With the 3rd one, be aware that although the speed sensor says im doing 0, i was driving, that sensor is just sending no data.

    Have you tried new sensors? There must be some specs for the sensors so you can measure the resistance across them?

    nah not yet. pretty sure i know how to fix the TPS issue. oxygen sensor is unknown. might have something to do with the extractors installed last week. vehicle speed sensor is gonna be a tough one cause i gotta find the wires for it

    the speed sensor will fix a lot of your problems, theres some wiring diagrams on my website www.memcals.com

    is there a wire for the speed sensor that runs from the dash instruments to the ECU? what wire on the ECU is the speed sensor?
    im just wondering if there is a bad connection because my dash speedo works but the ECU still thinks im doing 0kph.
    I also tried fixing my TPS today. got it all back together in the right place but now the electronic dash on winaldl gives a reading of -13.3, but the datalog shows it at a constant 0. Any ideas?

    i think ive worked out the problem. TPS is useless cause it got carby cleaner in it. speed sensor works with level 1 dash in, but not when the level 3 is in. gonna have to switch some parts over.
