I have 01 monte carlo. The fan's are not working. Put a new censor in and relays. The fans are still not kicking on. Ran some code and one was PO 140 and PO 403 any idea what these codes mean?

as far as these codes they refer to the PCM signals to the o2 sensors ,but i don't think they would affect the cooling fans , does the engine overheat ? are you loosing coolant ? one reason the fans may not cut in is if the waterpump isn't working but you would have noticed lowcoolant , do the top and bottom radiator hose's get very hot ?if both hoses very hot and you've changed the sensor etc it may well be the actual fan motors , try putting a direct power and earth to the fan wire connectors , this way you will know if fans are good if they start , then the problem may be in the wiring , which can be a nightmare to trace , hope this is of some help

Po 171, po 305, po 441

Hi, I know from my past experiances the spark plug wires at the boot ends than slide onto the sparkplugs usually over time short out due to the metal tubes that protect the sparkplugs from heat kind of ark across from the metal tube through the plug boot causing an error code. Sometimes in the dark you can actually see them arking at the tube on the engine, and also hear a crackling noise. As to the code for the O2 sensor that's a normal wear and tear item that may need replaced. As all vehicle age over time electrical connections, and things have issues develop and cause havick with sensors and computers in these vehicles too.


As with the 441 code and then the other code for the O2 sensor showing up may mean both O2 sensors are going bad if your system has 2 sensors in the exhaust, usually one before the cat converter and one behind it. A lot of this also is due to what gasoline you use in the vehicle over time. Lower octane gas may be what is causing things to act up.

Po316, po 300, po301, po305 2004 ford freestar

These codes are making me lean towards the ignition coil pack.My stepson's 2001 Sable 3.0 v6 had one cylinder misfiring(5-code P0305),which shares a coil with cylinder 1(code P0301).I diagnosed it by trading wire 1 and 5 at the coil,and the code changed to P0301.You have codes for the two cylinders on the same coil,so this is most likely it.(these codes would also trigger P0300(Multiple Misfires Detected) and P0316(Misfire Detected First 1000 Revs)).

Check engine light on

P0700 - Transmission Control System Malfunction, this is a transmission or PCM issue and needs further diagnosis with other test gear.

The P1684 code simply means that the battery has been disconneted within the last 50 engine starts.
