Just tell me what you think could be possibly wrong.

18042 - Accelera.Pedal Pos.Sensor 2 Signal too High
17518 - O2 Sensor Heating Circ.,Bank2-Sensor2 Short to B+
17548 - Bank2-Sensor2 Internal Resistance too High
16518 - O2 Sensor Circ.,Bank1-Sensor1 No Activity Detected

The first 4 would come back right away after I tried to clear them. Now on to the rest.

17861 - Exhaust gas temperature sensor 1 open/short to B+
17865 - Exhaust gas temperature sensor 2 open/short to B+
16522 - O2 Sensor Circ.,Bank1-Sensor2 High Voltage
16542 - O2 Sensor Circ.,Bank2-Sensor2 High Voltage
18047 - Accelera.Pedal Pos.Sensor 1+2 Range/Performance
17524 - O2 Sensor Heater Circ.,Bank1-Sensor1 Open

I really dont feel like doing anything as Im getting really tired of this but if you tell me something to do I'll go do it. Thanks and Happy Holidays.

Default

probably a bad ground (B+), or maybe the whole ECU is jacked up...

Default I would replace the 02s in question right off the bat. I would probably log the accel

pedal position sensors. It's block 81 or 82. one of the sensors will be nearer to 5 volts at rest and the other will be nearer to 1 volt at rest. As you gradually depress the accel pedal one's voltage will rise and the other's will fall until you reach the last 1/2" of pedal travel.
If you are only getting a code for one of the accel pedal sensors, my guess is it's just an accel pedal. I would look in there to make sure you haven't kicked any connectors though.

If I had a socketed chip, I would make sure everything was snug.

Default Check the relay's in the e-box. IIRC the power supply relay can throw a ton of strange faults if

it's bad.

Default i am with ryan. something is wrong with a charge in the car

look for loose ground wires. corroded pin ports too.

i know you just replaced the 02's, and knowing it isnt a hard procedure, and knowing you helped me with mine.....i also know that you prolly didnt mess that up.

the accel position thing is just plain weird.

i know with the rally car there was a loose ground and when we turned the master switch on, the whole car went haywire.....someone said something had its polarity reversed or some ****. i dunno.

cuz you would say it to me:

what would i do if i were you? burn it. it is a tip and noone will miss it.


seriously if you want, we can work on it at jd's house provided he can let us use the lift, or even better drive up here and we can throw it on mine if you are impatient

Default Sounds like one of your O2 sensors is screwing up something in the CAN line.....

or maybe the 5v reference voltage. If you disconnect one O2 sensor at a time, you'd get a DTC for that, but see what other DTC's come back (or don't come back). YOu may narrow down the problem this way, when you unplug the faulty component, and everything is ok except that one DTC.....
