There is a factory repair bulletin for this code, we do not have access to it, only the dealer does at this time.

SOURCE: Engine warning light on Mazda MPV 2002

There seem to be 4 sensors along the way in the air intake and emissions system.

My Check Engine light indicated a bad sensor 1, bank 2 code (I think).

I had my mechanic replace the sensor that was indicated as faulty... cost = $191.

Then the Check Engine light came on again (with a different code), and I had to leave the van with him all day.

Cost to replace and install that sensor = $115.

My advice: if the Check Engine light stays on *AND* your vehicle is riding rough, get it fixed.

Otherwise, put a piece of tape over that Check Engine light and save a couple hundred dollars!

Hope this helps, I do trust my mechanic fully.

Testimonial: "Thanks for taking the time to post your advice re my MPV problem. Although not a definitive solution, it's certainly good advice."

SOURCE: please explain hyundai terracan 2002 fault codes

P1730 Front Speed Sensor - Low Input
P1732 Rear Speed Sensor - Low Input
P1734 Speed Sensor Reference - Low
These are all references to Electronic Stability Control or ABS systems. If there's no problem with wiring, then you could safely assume the speed sensors are bad.

When i start my jeep liberty 2002 the key light is on and my car is open

ok, must not be ASE rated mechanics???? sure.
please post the symptoms , I can not understand your post.
my guess is you mean the dash warning light with a kEY icon
is glowing, well that is the Immobilizer.
the operators guide covers all lights,. lost that?
using both keys as sold with car new??? lost the spare?

here is a DIY list, (my wild assumption)
  1. Read the operators guide first (glove box)?
  2. check all fuses for good (test them)
  3. scan the PCM see if there are IMMO errors SKIM/SKIS etc.
  4. the scan tool can show many errors, like wrong key, or comm errors or the skim module is dead or , gee the whole list of possible errors there covered in the fsm.
  5. reset the battery , pull neg lug wait 15m, and put back. but may brick the radio, (it asking for codes) (or NAV if you have that)
  6. that is about it DIY.

no scan tool?, no joy,,,, DIY.

What is the next step in diagnosing our Terracans electrical problem

code p1123 refers to long term fuel trim--additive--mixture too rich===causes-- HO2S--fuel pressure --fuel system---mechanical fault---ECM
check all wires and connections. With the mechanical fault I would be revisiting all the items you removed to get to the rocker cover to ensure that all the hoses and wires were correctly replaced and that the gasket has not been mis -fitted or squashed out from under the cover at some point

Service 4wd light on; w4d does not work at all

To start with, a basic engine computer code reader will not connect to the body computer which is why they are not getting any codes.
The 4wd lights will not come on as long as the warning light is on, the system is disabled until it is fixed.
You may need someone with a professional scanner to connect to the body computer.

You'll need a scanner which is compatible with Hyundai's ABS system to retrieve any DTC's (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) stored in its computer. Any time the ABS light comes on, there's a DTC stored in its computer - that code will tell you where the problem exists. Then you can go from there.
