I know this was posted along time ago but... was just wondering what was the solution to this. My car has just developed a similar fault and its pissing me off. | |

Cheers everyone. I'll see what I can do tomorrow. Will probably take it to a few garages to see what they say coz they'll know better than me obviously. | |

quote: 16 pin diagnostic reading: connect the XX with a paper clip and turn the ignition on, dont start the engine though! 0 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 every code is 4 digits long and will flash 3 times, if the light stays off then no codes are stored. If a code begines with a 1 then it is a vauxhall specific code, all codes begining 0 can be found at On Board Diagnostics. 10,4,10,10,10,4,10,10,10,4,10,10, is code 0400 EGR valve. Hope this helps. 10,4,10,10 would flash 10 times, pause for 1 sec, flash 4 times, pause for 1 sec, flash 10 times, pause for 1 sec, flash 10 times, pause for 2/3 secs.

Thanks Miller, do you know where this thread for reading memory faults is? Got a link? | |

If you want to check the diagnostic fault codes out yourself, you can just use a paperclip to short two pins on the main engine ECU diagnostic port (usually where the fusebox is), the two pins you need to short depend on the type of engine management system you have (ie. Motronic/Multec/Simtec etc.). | |

As someone will probably let us know, there is a thread regarding how to read the fault in memory, used by the EMS. | |
