Check Engine Light
Hi,
My check engine light still wont do away. I used to have a battery light and i fixed it. Put a new wiring harness in. The problem is when you first start the car it will idle at like 900-1000 RPM then gradually move up to 1200 and stay there. I have all the hoses in the right places. Could it be my throttle postion sensor on the manifold? Thanks

Which code is it? Pull back carpet in passenge foot area - turn ignition - count # of flashes? That will be of great assistance.

what code is it throwing, it very well might be your cold idle temperture valve. i think thats what its called i cant remember but mine was idling at 1200 i left it alone then it just worked its way to idling at around 2500 rpms. took it to my mechanic took about 15 min. to adjust.

I did this with the key in the ignition on the on position.
Car was not running I dont think this makes a difference. Ok, Well I got 7 flashes: Throttle Angle (its idles at 1200) 10 flashes: Intake Air Temp (my aftermaket short ram, correct?) 13 flashes: Atmospheric Temp (no clue what it means) 6 flashes: Coolant Temp (I think im low on coolant) The one that catches my biggest attention is the throttle angle. If you could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks A lot.
