- VS II Ute V6 1996
Hi all, my ’96 VS II six cylinder stalled on me last night when I pulled up at a red light. It started again OK. I parked at a mates place for a few hours, it started up OK when I left, but when I stopped at a servo ten minutes later, it would not start straight away, it cranked over, but would not fire. After a couple of times of doing this, I sat there and thought CAS? Maybe I should pour some cold water on it. I then tried it again, and it started. It started OK this morning, drove it to work (20 mins) no problems, when I stopped at work, I waited a minute in the car, and started it again, no problem.
I then checked for error codes and got 46 and 47.
My Haynes manual says:
46 - No reference signal from ignition module while cranking
47 – No 18X reference signal from ignition module
On the link to the list of codes on this forum it says:
46 - No Reference Signals while cranking
47 - Crank Angle Reference Signal
What do you think I should do first, replace the crank angle sensor? It seems, from what I read, this is a pretty common fault.
There was a thread started on this subject called “diagnostic codes” back in January, by ironsavage. He was told either CAS or DFI, but there was no post back saying whether or not the problem was solved.
Any help I can get will be appreciated.
Thanks, Chappo.
