First you have to determine weather you have a FUEL problem or (ELECTRICAL)Spark problem ??

Pull the coil wire off or a easy to get to spark plug wire, Lay it close to were you pulled it off of (Do not hold or touch you may get SHOCKED) and crank motor (need two people) look and listen for a spark, if you see or here a spark, then go to next step which will be to check for Fuel (gas). Be very careful when checking fuel, as most lines are under pressure and may cause bodily harm such as BURNS to EYES and SKIN!! Loosen or pull the inlet fuel line off and put rag over line. Some fuel injected vehicles have a fuel rail the has a valve that looks like a tire valve. Put a rag over this valve and push it in with a small screw driver and have someone crank motor a couple of times to see if fuel is coming out.

If NO Spark---Could be a lot of things Points (older vehicles) Modules, Coils, Crank Sensors, ECT......

If NO Fuel---- Could be Clogged fuel filter, Fuel Pump, Fuel pump Relay, Fuse, ECT..........

Hope this helps you ??

the coolant tempurature sensor may be bad. it sense temp. of engine. if bad it will send wrong info, to pcm. check the wiring to sensor also. ( CTS ). it could be the guage but i do not think so. g00d-day ! if all fails change thermostat.

you would do best to let a shop handle this problem

There are 2 most probable reasons for a high idle : Vacuum leak and IAC motor (Idle Air Control) is stuck in the wide open position. The vacuum leak could be a broken/cracked or hose that came loose or intake gasket could be leaking. Usually the IAC stuck open will have a code stored, but the best way to test it is with a good scan tool. A cheap (less than $500) scanner will not be able to test it, but any decent shop should have a scan tool capable of controlling the IAC to test it.

You need to remove the front drive shaft not the fuse.

thats Emergency Key Access code, dealer needs to see it to reset.

There is a resynchronize key procedure to re-enable windows / mirrors operation.
The full instruction is in the owners handbook.
You will need the EMERGENCY KEY to complete the programming.

Please keep me posted on the fix via email.

why you have replaced the Fuel pump? who advised you to do so?
be guided as follow 1. on the Engine Side on the top there is a fuel rail for the injectors. turn the ign. key to the second position (on) and check the valve located on the fuel rail if fuel is coming pressurized and still won't work. then open on of the spark plugs wires and check if spark is there. (Be Careful doing that). if no spark then is there any message comes up on the Dash? if not messages then you can check the Crank Sensor if no current being generated from the ign. coils.

Ok, your light WILL go out, and go back to normal once repaired, so don't fret.

Unless the pump was really loud (bad internals), you likely burned up the pressure switch (green thing on end of pump), which can be purchased in LA, USA; or through me, GreenDog Oregon (store name on Ebay US). These go out due to the pump running for an extended peroid of time, overheating the entire assembly, and allowing moisture into the pressure switch (Yes, they do go bad, and I have pictures of the inside of a bad one, full of brown muck). The reason this happens is bacause the nitrogen charge in the ABS accumulator (ball like canister attached to pump) has a limited life-span, and goes bad after about 7 years (Rave 2003). This means that the pump must run more often to accomidate braking, as it has no assist.

So, you can replace the Accumulator, and the pressure switch, and will likely be back in commission, after a proper bleeding, of course (directions for proper bleeding in Rave 2003 -CD available on ebay for appx $5)

Or, you could just replace the entire assy with a nkown good used part, and since the switch on the used part will likely be good, you can then just replace the ABS accumulator. The pressure switch is very hard to find, but I do have a couple of sources, here on the West Coast.

If you need further assistance or need a pressure switch (or parts), contact me through my ebay store, GreenDog Oregon. If you have trouble finding my store, just look for P38 and Classic parts, I'll be near the top of the store listings, as my prices are low, due to the low cost of rovers in the NW.

You have to have the system diagnosed

You can not make any light, on any dash, go away

They are required by the Federal Govt, and you are
to repair the issues

If you get in an accident now, you will eat the steering
wheel ,as the system may be turned off

Have it repaired, it has a malfunction

Please see my tip at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r6235876-no_heat_fan_blowing_cold_air . These are generic instructions. If you get stuck or need specific instructions for your car, please get back to me with model, year and engine info.

you must take it to the dealer, with 100% proof you are the owner

Hi!
Drive your vehicle to an AutoZone, Checkers or similar auto parts store and have them reset your Check Engine Light. No Charge for that service.
Good Luck!! Don't forget to rate this post!!

If you have not removed any wiring yet,why not draw one out for your use ! You can number the wires,or tape them with masking tape then mark them,and to the cylinders, in order of firing or in front to rear on one bank left or right and to the coil towers with a white marker.or a card board template with numbered positions for the wires to hook up to the correct towers. Or just change them one at a time.
