CEL Blinking on 92 Sub Loyale

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

I have a 92 Sub Loyale that I just switched out the ECU on b/c the CEL never ever came on when the ignition was turned on. Now, the CEL comes on when I turn the ignition but once the car starts it starts blinking constantly. I have some people telling me the problem is the computer I put in, but i have verified that it worked in the previous 92 Sub Loyale and then some people telling me it is a sensor. Can anyone tell me who is right? Thanks.

one thing to check..

 

pop the hood and look for some green single-pole connectors near the wiper motor in the driver side rear of the engine compartment.

 

If they are connected, dis-connect them. Same with a similar pair of white (or black) connectors in the same area.

 

The green connectors should only be used when checking the timing, or when forcing the car to check all it's sensors. In that case you connect them, go for a drive, and if the CEL blinks you have no problems (sound familiar? :)).

 

The white/black connectors are used to check stored codes, if there are any.

 

During normal operation neither of these sets of connectors should be connected.
