While I drive the DIC sometimes displays "HOT ENGINE SHUT DOWN" The car goes into limp mode and the traction control shuts down. The engine temp is OK. It does it hot or cold - while stopped or while driving. It lasts for a few seconds then back to normal. Any help?

 

1: WHATS A DIC? 2: WHAT MODEL AURORA ARE WE TALKING ABOUT

The DIC is the Driver Information Center - the little screen that generates text. This is a 1995 Aurore.

 

I HAVE A 1995 AURORA, ALTHOUGH I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. IF YOU WERE TO TAKE IT TO SOMEONE THAT HAS A ONBOARD DIAGNOSIS TESTER, ( AUTOZONE IS FREE IN MOST CASES ) IT WILL PROBABLY TELL YOU WHATS WRONG OR AT LEAST GIVE YOU A PLACE TO START. GOOD LUCK..

//--></>I wish you were right - but I don't think that will work - there is no Check Engine light on so there are probably no codes to read. May be time to finally get rid of it - assuming it is the ECM - the main computer.

AN OBD TESTER DOES NOT HAVE TO HAVE AN ENGINE LIGHT ON TO TEST AND GIVE CODES. IT CHECKS THE COMPUTER MEMORY AND TELLS WHAT HAS OCCURED RECENTLY, GO FIND A OBD TESTER, ITS A 2 MINUTE TEST..

 

Good call, ilikecars!


AutoZone and Advance will scan your car for free and give you a printout of the possible causes.


BTW...is your CAPS LOCK still broken?
