bad computer? PLEASE HELP!
i've got the following codes and the car runs with a miss. its intermittently hard to start. when turning the motor over you can smell fuel. i'm thinking it might be flooding a . but thats just a guess. it has the 5th injector circuit code.
NOW, the car also. has crazy problems that would seem like the bcm, but i replaced the bcm and it didn't fix it. the gauge/interior and headlights do not turn off after removing the key. it is intermittent. and earlier today when i was looking at it. it seemed that if it was runnning okay the lights would go off. but if it was running badly the lights would stay on... i really think its the vcm but i wanted some feedback from the pros [PCM] P0205 - Injector 5 Control Circuit (Pending) (Old) (Current) (Immature) [PCM] P0300 - Engine Misfire Detected (SES) (Pending) (Old) (History) (Current) (Immature) [PCM] P0305 - Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected [Unknown] B2578 - (SES) [Unknown] B2587 - (SES) [Unknown] B2588 - (SES) [Unknown] B2648 - (SES) [Unknown] B2600 - (SES) [Unknown] B2601 - (SES) [Unknown] B2602 - (SES) [Unknown] B2603 - (SES) [Unknown] B1369 - (History) [Unknown] B1379 - (History) [Unknown] B2960 - Sec Sys Sensor Data Incorrect but Valid (History) [Unknown] B2575 - (SES) (History) [Unknown] B1001 - Option Configuration Error (SES) [Unknown] B2585 - (SES) (History) [Unknown] U1000 - Class 2 Communication Malfunction (History) [Unknown] U1016 - Loss of Class 2 Communication with VCM (History) [Unknown] U1088 - Loss of Communications with SDM (History) [Unknown] U1096 - Loss of Communications with IPC (History) [Unknown] U1040 - Loss of Class 2 Communications with ABS (History) [Unknown] B2577 - (SES) [HUD] U1040 - Loss of Class 2 Communications with ABS (History) [HUD] U1255 - Class 2 Communication Malfunction (History) [HUD] U1016 - Loss of Class 2 Communication with VCM (History) [HUD] B1365 - (History) [Entertainment] U1000 - Class 2 Communication Malfunction (History) (Immature) [Convenience] U1016 - Loss of Class 2 Communication with VCM (History) (Immature) |
First, I would clear all the codes, and see what comes back up, just to get rid of all the leftovers from the BCM change. Second, I would put in a new ignition switch, as they are known to go bad and cause all sorts of erratic, random issues when they do. Only if that doesn't fix it would I go the vcm route.
Also, could you have bumped/unplugged the #5 injector during your troubleshooting? |
