1997 P0300 weirdness
All - my 1997 with 109k on the clock has developed an annoying habit
of flashing the CEL at highway speeds recently. I never lose any power, and the car runs fine throughout the RPM band. I found a TSB regarding this issue and checked the gap between the CKP and the crank sensor plate. It was out of spec, so I adjusted it. I also cleaned all three grounds in the engine bay and reset the light. The problem came back. The only other thing I can mention is that my speedometer cable broke a few months back because the speedometer itself locked up, so I took the speedo apart, oiled the bushing, and I repaired the cable with a small piece of model airplane all-thread. The speedo works now but the pointer is a bit jumpy because the end of the cable is not perfectly straight. And while I was in there fixing the speedometer I noted that there is a reed switch on the magnetic drag ring that is probably the feed to the computer for the vehicle speed. So..going out on a limb here.....does anyone know...do the VSS and CKP sensors work in tandem to detect misfires? If so, I may need to replace the speedo cable to fix this problem.... Thanks, Chris |
