Geo Metro - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support
Geo metro transmission slips and
Auto Trans I had to replace solenoid in transmission there are two of them when you drop the pan. After testing with a 12 volt battery one was bad replaced and transmission works fine. Mine was a 1996, cost about $90 for solenoid.
Which sensors tell the ECU to send a pulse to the single TBI injector?
You want a simple answer but there is not one. The ECU looks at many things to determine what (if any) pulse is proper. Any sensor which sends no information or info outside of normal limits can prevent pulse. No info from crank/cam sensor is common issue, Bad EFI fuse or relay can do this. Bad ECU ground or other ground (Fuel rail) can do this. Many sensors can be tested with ohm meter.
2000 geo metro hard to start after engine is hot
I would focus on what's making your car hot.... a bad catalytic converter sounds like what you have...It's before the muffler..It gets clogged up...makes car run a little hotter and harder to start....Google it
Tps prob!!
wont go to high idle
this is the IAC failing not TPS, the tps only signals to the ECU
that you are at idle.
Check engine light is on
total check the engine. check the cooling system ,check the engine pistons, check the piston valve ,check the the thermostat which also part of the cooling system .cooling system ;means these the parts of engine that provide the engine not to over heat . Engine piston, engine block , engine valve and the other parts these are the one that compress the gasoline that makes the car run.if you have tools to u can do it your self .its better to be safe while on the street on your 1995Geo metro.
94 Automatic Geo Metro 3 Cyl. Map Sensor - EGR Valve
Unfortunately, both of these items are equally important and repairs can't normally be avoided by taking care of your car.
Your MAP (Mass Air Pressure) Sensor measures intake manifold vacuum pressure to help control the air and fuel mixture and timing. It contains a pressure-sensitive element that connects to an electronic circuit, generating a signal that changes with pressure changes in the manifold.
Your EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve recirculates exhaust gases through the intake manifold to be burned again, cooling peak combustion temperature. Dilutes the air and fuel mixture to keep the nitrogen oxide emissions within breathable limits. And yes, it could very well be that the EGR solenoid that is causing the issue.
Both units effect your vehicle's fuel/air mixture. This is important because your vehicle running lean/rich can cause "snowball" problems. For example, a faulty EGR can cause the vehicle to run rich/lean. If not repaired, in time, the exhaust caused by the wrong rich/lean fuel mixture can damage the O2 sensors and/or catalytic converter.
If I had to pick, I'd start with your MAP Sensor. One guess I would have is that your MAP Sensor failed and made your vehicle start burning the wrong fuel/air mixture. Assuming I'm right, this could have damaged the EGR Valve. So, I see no reason to replace the EGR Valve alone, just so it too can be damaged by the poor fuel/air mixture caused by the still-faulty MAP Sensor. If your lucky, you may see the faulty EGR code disappear once your MAP Sensor is replaced.
Hope this helps and good luck!
