    CEL code 6, S Light 10 (I think)

    As the title states I'm getting CEL code 6 "coolant temp sensor", did some research into it and thought it was the sensor under the "dizzy"
    Well I changed that out and I'm still getting code 6 and a flashing s light.
    I'm guessing its the sensor at the top radiator hose, I do not know where the 3rd sensor is located.
    As for the TCU code 10 which sensor is that?

    BTW, a thanks for suggesting the ground problem in my previous lighting issue thread, I found those 2 semi clear plugs tucked behind and not properly grounded to the chassis. Once I grounded those all my headlight issues went away.

    Bump.

    Got some free time this weekend and despite the rain went to the junkyard and got some new plugs and some misc things.
    The Coolant sensor plug under the dizzy itself was burned or clogged with oil so I spliced the cables and attached a new clean one on there. I also replaced the plug for the sensor on the top coming from the radiator to no avail.
    Still getting Code 6 and TCU 10. Which sensor is the TCU code 10 referring to?
    Any help is appreciated as this goes beyond my limited knowledge of cars. If there's anyone locally in the clearwater/tampa area who can show me anything, I'll fix your computers <3

      Hit search. http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...light=tcu+code

      You're in luck, that's also the coolant temperature sensor.

          So TCU code 10 (which I did check/search) is the same sensor that's under the dizzy? Even After resetting the ECU several times I'm still getting code 6 and code 10. Is there another sensor that throws CEL code 6 that I'm not aware of?

          Not so much as "new" plugs as finding a CB with good condition plugs and wiring them to mine. Mine had turned from green to black and smelled "crispy".



          Appreciate the Input.

            Theres 2 sensors under the Dizzy - One is the gauge temp (the smaller one) the other is the ECT temp sensor (The larger one)


            Car Safety / General Servicing Checks --------Basic suspension checks

            A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

            If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

              Plugs are cheap and important enough to buy new.

              Are you burning oil?
