Fault Codes?
« on: April 30, 2013, 08:21:52 am »
Do fault codes clear themselves, I had two for the MAF sensor and 1 for the emissions light 6monthes ago had It scanned at the weekend and they've disappeared?

That is all, thanks.

If you fix the fault then after a certain number of startups afterwards the fault is cleared from the ecu.
Without traction power is nothing!

Nice I cleaned my MAF sensor out with electrical component cleaner and was told the emissions light was due to a change of fuel when i topped up after i picked the car up, it must be the V-power!!! :happy2:
