Re: help needed: CEL codes keep coming back but I believe parts are good

. . . P0032 is the heater circuit in the front OXS, not the sensor readout . . . It might be another electrical fault is pulling the heater low and popping the P0032 . . . should show very close to B+ voltage with the key on in POS II abscate, thank you for your continued help with this! I'll look ...

Re: help needed: CEL codes keep coming back but I believe parts are good

Another update. I haven't had a chance to test the O2 sensor yet but have been paying very close attention to when the CEL illuminates with P0032. What I've found is that P0032 will *never* set while the car is being driven. P0032 only sets when I first start the car. If I start the car and P0032 se...

Re: help needed: CEL codes keep coming back but I believe parts are good

A follow-up: I cleaned up every ground connection I could find, replaced all 5 spark plugs and 1 coil pack that was visibly damaged (although apparently still firing). Those efforts helped with making some of the codes go away, but I still have one persistent code: P0032. All the other codes have no...

Re: help needed: CEL codes keep coming back but I believe parts are good

RickHaleParker & abscate - thank you very much for your pointers. I'll inspect the parts you've noted. Battery seems to be fine (always starts) and the battery cables in the trunk are like-new.

help needed: CEL codes keep coming back but I believe parts are good

U.S. spec V70 base model normally aspirated 2.4 liter, 270K miles on the clock. I need help troubleshooting check engine light issues. My car is illuminating the CEL chronically, and it’s preventing me from getting it registered. Apart from the CEL being illuminated, the car starts and drives perfec...

Yes indeed. An ounce of precaution ... it didn't become a proverb without reason.

Re: DiCE - What do you use for 12V power supply

Update: I disassembled the Dice and checked the 12v power socket. It matches what my adapter has: negative outside and positive center.

Re: DiCE - What do you use for 12V power supply

I found a 12V DC 1 Amp adapter in my garage and I used that to connect an old working DiCE at the first VIDA run - it ran just fine; on the DiCE self-test it reported 13.8 V supply. regarding the 12 volt DC 1 amp adapter, can you tell me the polarity of the tip? Is it (-) on the outside and (+) on ...

Re: 2005 S60 headlight assembly connector - how to disconnec

Honestly, at this point I just want to get it off so that I know how to. It's nothing more than a Sisyphean effort to figure out how that connector comes off ... I'm frustrated that I can't figure it out, and that bugs me. (Originally I had wanted to get it off to trace what I thought was an electri...
