An update, replaced the flex fuel filter, and both upstream o2 sensors. Cleared the codes and still see PO178 which is the flex fuel sensor switch low voltage. Truck is getting harder to start unless I prime switch 2-3 cycles before hitting the starter. Tried to measure fuel pressure but the...
Went back to O'Reilly and erased the codes. No codes came up after the erasure. Have restarted three time since and the check engine has not reignited. Weather today was in the high 60's. Will advise if the check engine re-ignites at lower temperatures.
Seems to be starting a bit better...
Thanks for your thoughts, if xxx restarts can clear codes, how do I know when the reset happens? Does an INNOVA 5300 scanner clear the prior codes before reporting?
Ps to all, I had tried a $24 CatCarbon treatment with no relief of check engine light. However the replacing both upstream O2 sensors has not extinguished the check engine light and three codes described in the last post are still showing.
Update on situation, replaced the fuel filter, and both upstream O2 analyzers yesterday. Disconnected to clear code but OBD still showing a PO135 (O2 analyzer)on bank 1 listed second to a PO300 ignition missfiring, then a PO178 flex fuel switch failure.
Since last posting and post these...
Your A/C evaporator coil drains are blocked with probably leaf debris and overflowing into the cabin instead. Been there and own those wet carpets. Work the drain debri free from the fire exterior side using a stiff hook end wire.
Code change was done before 2013. So it drove about 4 yrs without this check engine light issue. Will have to chase down the wand if this is important, or interesting otherwise
Really appreciate all the help I am getting. The Vehicle saw 42F so of course the check engine came back on. Fuel port door does show an E85 sticker.
PS vehicle came with a shift manipulation software change, OEM code readers cannot get past whatever this software changed. Autozone code...
Thanks for everybody's comments.
The pattern I describe is very consistent for more than three running years, and persistent. I refueled half a tank refill yesterday while temperatures were in the Mid-60s. Had a check engine light from the half tank before adding half more refill when the...
When weather gets cool enough ~60F going down my check engine light comes on, also goes off when temperatures are >60F. One can of STP water chase, STP injector cleaner or Techron makes the light go off until the next fill-up or two. She is a 2004 SLT Yukon and has 212K miles on her. A winter...
