'00 S70 - Holy multiple codes, Batman!

Post by RussB »

I picked up a 2000 S70 N/A auto to "replace my '00 T-5M that was totaled from a distracted driver who ran into my rear bumper, which did enough damage to get the car totaled.

Anyways, I picked up another 2000 S70. My plan was to swap many good & clean parts over. The "new" S70 had the ETS light on, and had all the typical ETS issues. I replaced it with a Xemodex unit. I drove the car today and put 160 miles of flawless driving. I stopped at the bank, and I when I restarted, I got this mess of codes, along with the ETS light,

P0121
P1608
P1610
P1611
P1613
P1670
P1620, which will not clear. :cry:

121 is the throttle position sensor, and the others seem to be ECM related. Any and all advice appreciated

I don't have any actual insight on this, but here is something from google, maybe points to the ETS:

Thanks Eric. I have looked through the Xemodex troubleshooting charts and I see the issue COULD be related to the ECM not getting sufficient power. I'm going to give it a good look once the rain stops around here
