Early in a drive cycle (say within the first 2 miles) the wrench light illuminates (code U0101). After shut down, waiting 2 or 3 minutes and restart problem (light) does not reappear. This occurs every day. Dealer want to charge $2400 to replace TCM. I am not sure this will resolve the problem despite the high cost. Help!

SOURCE: truck stalls while driving, will start again if wait ten minutes

Ok, this sounds like a weak fuel pump and clogged filter. if possible, you will need to change these two vital devices. I would also replace the air filter as well.

Inspect the injection system for faults as well. make sure all injectors are firing properly and on time. replace any injector that isn't functioning correctly.

SOURCE: Fuel rail pressure sensor chkt high input p0193

Mine is on too (MIL, with p0193), 2005 freestar. My dealer can't figure it out for some reason? So I went out and bought a code reader, will fix it myself!
Anyways it can be the fuel pressure sensor (approx $100 for part), the fuel pump, or regulator on the fuel line, not too sure what they are worth, and time for labour? I am currently looking for a test gauge to check the pressure in the fuel line to see if it is pump or regulator or sensor. Hopefully your service guys can run a few similar tests and determine what needs to go.

SOURCE: 2008 Ford F450 6.4 code P0088 3 times, ( check

Hello, you might try a new fuel rail pressure sensor. This Code 0088 is for high pressure at the fuelrail. It would be possible to rig a testing pressure gauge to the truck and drive it to see what the pressure really is. If the dealer has a Dyno, he could run it in the shop.

Some of the reports I am reading is the Turbo boost for other owners is starting to max out about 70-75 MPH with a load and usually going up a grade before this light comes on. A certified Pressure gauge would show whether the sensor is tripping too early.

I want to believe there are some specs the Dealer could use to bench test this sensor. But if the end result is buying a sensor and paying Labor you could just go Aftermarket and install a New sensor yourself.

Would like to know the final solution on this.

2014 Outback - Brake light flashes and Check Engine light come while driving then the engine shuts off. Wait 2-3 minutes before restarting. Happened 3 times in the past week.

Have the codes read. Check the brake fluid level. Wouldn't surprise me if low brake fluid doesn't kill the engine know days.

How do I reset my service engine light on a 2000 mitsubishi galant

  • Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
  • 2 Press the button to the left of the display on the instrument panel twice within one second. The oil life status will be displayed on the panel -- this should be past the mileage due for the service interval if the wrench icon is illuminated
  • 3 Turn the ignition key to the "OFF" position within 10 seconds of the status display.
  • 4 Press and hold the button to the left of the display again with one hand while turning the ignition key back to the "ON" position without starting the engine. The oil life status will show once again
  • 5 Continue to hold down the button for a few seconds longer, and then release it. Wait 10 seconds until a chime indicates and displays 6,000 miles for at least another 10 seconds.

    CAR STARTED TO SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING I PUT IN NEUTRAL RESTARTED THEN BACK TO DRIVE DID IT 2 SEPARATE TIMES FINALLY WAS DRIVING PARKED AND IT SHUT OFF HASN'T COME BACK ON I HAVE SEVERAL CODES FROM AUTO...

    Dieing while driving but restarting right away, no starts from a dead stop. To me this sounds like the anti theft security system shutting you down. These have been known to turn off injectors while driving and starters while stopped. Check and see if a light is illuminated that says SECURITY when it fails to start. Leave the key forward and look for it. If you see that light, then it is 100% the security system. This link has tons of info on symptoms, causes, and some DO IT YOURSELF solutions. http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.yolasite.com/

    Not Ready for Smog test

    it is not how many miles but the type of driving.

    here is a OBD2 drive cycle test.

    Generic OBD II "Drive Cycle" Most OBD II ("On-Board Diagnostics II") diagnostic monitors will run at some time during normal operation of the vehicle.
    However, to satisy all of the different Trip enable criteria and run all of the OBD II diagnostic monitors, the vehicle must be driven under a variety of conditions. The following drive cycle will (theoretically) allow all monitors to run on (??) vehicle. (Note: Drive cycle specifics vary by vehicle!)
    1. Ensure that the fuel tank is between 1/4 and 3/4 full.
    2. Start cold (below 86°F /30°C) and warm up until engine coolant temperature is at least 160° F (typically requires at least one minute; up to 3 minutes).
    3. Accelerate to 40-55 MPH at 25% throttle and maintain speed for five minutes.
    4. Decelerate without using the brake (coast down) to 20 MPH or less, then stop the vehicle. Allow the engine to idle for 10 seconds, turn the key off, and wait one minute.
    5. Restart and accelerate to 40-55 MPH at 25% throttle and maintain speed for two minutes.
    6. Decelerate with using the brake [or the clutch!] by coasting down to 20 MPH or less, then stop the vehicle. Allow the engine to idle for 10 seconds, turn the key off, and wait one minute.

    Engine shuts off while driving

    I would suspect a faulty EGR valve, but is the check engine light on? If it is, take the vehicle to an autoparts store and have them use a scan tool to retrieve the fault code(s) stored in the computer. Most parts stores offer this service free of charge. That will narrow the search for the problem. Sure hope this helped.
