I have a 2001 saturn sl1 and my check engine light came on today, and when I took it to get read it came up with the following codes.. P1620, p1599, p0442, and p0341. I tried replacing the gas tank cap (it was a possibility with one of the codes and I knew from previous experience this sent codes haywire) however, that didn't seem to help. The car is running fine, the gas mileage is fine, no funny noises, and it's not overheating/dying on me which I read others had experienced. I am at a loss as to what could be causing all of these codes to go off at once.

Having codes read is a waste of time, if you don't understand
or work on vehicles

You need a shop to properly diagnose it,you know that

Any codes can be Googled to look them up

Type: OBD & the code

Codes have little to do with replacing parts

No parts get replaced until they are tested & fail a test

SOURCE: my car wont start my mechanic put it on machine

ok now for starters, we will go with the most probable:P0341 crank position sensor. chances are it needs to be replaced. 2nd your check engine light has probably been on for a while right?! the P0133 is an o2 sensor code and would probably be good maintenance(but get it to run first. 3rd P1599 refers to it stalling out which if it died while running would most likely trigger this. and last but not least either your coolant level switch is faulty or you really do have low coolant. let me know.

I have a 1992 Saturn sl1.Idle goes up and the check engine light goes on and the idle goes back down.

Take your car to a mechanic shop or autoparts store and have them read the computer.

P1599 and p2138?

P1599 - means that the computer detected that the engine stalled when the ignition had not been turned off.
Does your vehicle have a stalling problem?

P2138 - is the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 1-2 correlation.
The accelerator pedal has a sensor and the throttle actuator has the one as well. the computer expect thats both sensor will read the same as the accelerator pedal is operated. If one sensor read differently from the other the computer will set this code.

Long story short, you'll have to have shop to check this code out for you since a scan tool will be needed in the diagnosis of this code.

I got error code p1599

Before you replace the sensor, you should check the voltage circuit for the heater. The sensor may be fine and not getting voltage to the heater inside.
The code 1599 just means the engine has stalled at some point. It does not tell you why or how.
I doubt the two codes are related.

Hi, I took my 02 saturn to see why it was idling rough and misfiring, they told me I had a code of p1599. can you tell me what I need to buy to fix this problem? my ca has never stalled.

p1599 refers to TPS (throttle position sensor) Stop by a local parts store (Advance, Autozone, etc) and have them do a free fault scan for you.

Go to your local autozone or advanced auto and they can check it for free. Ask for the code and then look it up on google for ways to fix what it is.
