Okay great, a friend of mine is the GM of a big Ford Store and I know guys at the one by my house.
Thanks again!

 

Getting the 2 lights (air bag and check engine) diagnosed tomorrow or Tuesday.
Wanted to see if I can post pics now.

 

Woohoo, it works!

 

Nice looking ride

 

Thank you!


Right now i'm dealing with a check engine light (CEL).
Autozone says p0410 and p0445.


Gotta try and figure out what's up.


Are there "usual culprits" behind those two codes?

 

This one has a code too, we stopped to Auto Zone and they said it was a MAP sensor so I figure we will just change both the MAP and MAF. What is the best way to clear the codes? I've read take the neg off the battery and leave the headlights on for about ten minutes but I also read where this will affect the car till the computer re learns shift points. Gonna do a search and see, don't have a scanner yet and that might be the best way to go.

 

Wow! you got a nice looking ride there, and if you got it for the 3300 that was a good deal unless there are issues.
If you got an Air bag light that's in the sensors in the seat someplace, I have an 06 Pontiac Torrent and the light is on. They tell me the sensor is very expensive, but they also said if you clean the connectors they will go off and work fine ?????????????
Not sure on that. I haven't done that yet.
They say if you disconnect the battery it resets stuff. If you change the battery it will do the same thing I am not sure that it will need to relearn all the stuff, you might need to reset the clock but the rest of the stuff should come up. At least it did on the 06 Pontiac Torrent I have? GM stuff too.
Sometimes all the sensors on these things will drive you crazy, like the low tire pressure, that Gal that got the 09 Impala would call me all the time and ask me about that.
I think she just wanted me to drive up and see her?
But that was fun too?

 

So does the sticker say it came from Dale Earnhardt Chevrolet? or are the tags and plate frames just for show?

 

Thank you!...and Yep, 3300 bucks, and yep, it has a few issues. Nothing crazy,...mainly the 2 lights and 2 small rust spots on lower parts of the fender.
The plate and frame are just for show. They really set it off!
I also have a chrome plated plastic cursive written thing that goes onto the trunk. Hard to explain but I will get a pic up of it.

Once I have some time, I want to see if I can diagnose the problem, before I have to take it to the Dealership.
If I do have to take it somewhere to get the lights fixed, where's the best place?
Dealer,.... or ....smaller good ASE cert. type fix it place?

Thanks!

 

I'm working on the p0410 code. It's for the secondary air injection pump problem.


I checked the fuse today for the air pump and it was blown.
I replaced it and it hasn't blown again.
I guess we will see once it goes through a cold start tomorrow morning.

I'm not sure that I would be able to hear the pump run (with the engine running also).

Does anyone know of a troubleshooting "chart" for this p0410 code?
