This trouble code diagnosis section with keep being further expanded in the following manner. Phase 1 - On the pop up solutions you will now see mainly the basics. Phase 2 - I will be combing my shop manual for more detailed and technical information to be included in these potential solutions, especially on the common codes that make us pull our hair out. Phase 3 - I will present real-life solutions that myself or other readers have experienced.
