Re: 96 neon (service engine soon)

Noone is talking about setting timing and yes you can reset the PCM by disconnecting the negative terminal. When I have a code pop up and fix the problem, I disconnect and the CEL is gone. If the problem is still there, then the CEL will come back on.

Re: 96 neon (service engine soon)

Did you reset the PCM? Did you take care of the other problems as well? Try this for the speedometer problem.

Do you have an auto or manual?

Re: 96 neon (service engine soon)

Hi, My daughter just gave back the Neon I gave her. 100,000 km in 4 years with no maintenance... Not bad eh? To tell you the truth I have changed the oil and filter around 4 times for her during this time. It is an auto and the check engine soon lamp is on. Surprise surprise!! I have changed oil, filter fuel filter, leads, air filter, plugs, but still lamp is on. I will check for codes tomorrow. This is a very handy website. I am pleased I found it. Also no reverse when the engine is started from cold. After about 45 seconds to 1 minute of idling the car jumps and bangs into reverse. Do you think this could be due to no auto trans fluid change in at least 4 years or 100,000 km? I am wondering if it is worth wile changing the trans fluid or just counting my losses and taking it to the wrecking yard. What do you think?

Re: 96 neon (service engine soon)

Hi, I know it was quite a few years back, but did you ever get to the bottom of why the check engine lamp was on and did it eventually disappear? I am having the same problem with my daughters Neon.

I'd check the coded first and then report back. If it's never had a fluid and filter flush for the tranny, it's probably worth the $100 investment.
