Guest mrhobbz Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 So i went to autozone and had them read the engine codes for my engine light.. One was what i already figured: missfire in cyl. #3 - Dirty maf/ fuel filter/ fuel pump is what im leaning towards. Second code: P1830: Transmission transfer case counter clockwise shift relay coil short circuit to ground Transmission transfer case counter clockwise shift relay coil open circuit.. **Figured it out, fixing it tonight** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flippy1974 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 i would figure if it was maf fuel filter or pump it would have a miss fire on more then 1 cyl.did u check the wires and maybe pull the plug and look at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to clean the MAF either way, fuel filter and see what happens, already have a set of plugs and wires at the house. Not too worried about the missfire, just not sure about this pressure solenoid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get home I will check my MODIS and see if the troubleshooting has any hints about the P1830 code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to look at it when i get home, check engine light came on literally 2 days after driving the car, this morning it came on at an idle.. I don't think they payed much attention to anything.

AJ Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 you don't need to pull the transmission to replace any solenoids. just drop the pan and there all right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh shit, thanks for letting me know that I've also heard that is a common code to see along with a misfire and doesnt neccessarily indicate that its bad.

AJ Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 well since your car doesn't have a transfer case or a P1830 code i would hope you have some moron pull codes for you at AZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye1647545503 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 fix the miss first, a car down on power and missing will always shift bad/funny maybe to the point of a code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mrhobbz Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 fix the miss first, a car down on power and missing will always shift bad/funny maybe to the point of a code. Im popping new plugs/wires/fuel filter/and cleaning the MAF sensor for good measure.. I guess we'll see how that goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 I modded the shit out of my v6 bird and was in and out of that motor constantly. I threw misfired codes pretty often too. Does the car kind of stutter under throttle? I'll bet a good hunk of money that you blew an ignition coil, I guarantee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 They tend to get melted pretty often. look into purchasing longer wires and routing them elsewhere then the stock location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
