code p 0128 refers to coolant thermostat--coolant temp below thermostat regulating temperature ===causes --mechanical fault
replace the thermostat
your problem may be low fuel pressure from a faulty pressure regulator
have the fault codes read professionally as the code you have is not related to your problem
you'll need a code reader to see the code no start issues can be many things check all your fuses does the engine crank is fuel flowing is do you have spark start by trying to get the codes
Code P0700 just means the trans computer has a code. You need to have the trans
computer read to get the trans code p0034 the rubber turbo hose to the inlet manifold which had a small split in it
causing it to loose pressure
these codes will not make your car not start check battery to see if its dead again does the engine turn over at all when you put battery back in car is terminals tight
It is hard to say exactly what to do with your problem because the information you posted is inaccurate and incomplete. There is no code "1059" for a 2004 Chrysler Sebring. The only code I could come up with that is even close is code P0159, which is a "slow response" code for a downstream oxygen sensor. If this is NOT the code you are reading, then you should re-post it with the correct code designation EXACTLY like the code reader gives it to you. It would be very helpful to mention also which engine your Sebring is equipped with.
If this IS the code you have, the sensor will most likely have to be replaced. It should be noted, however, that the system needs to be checked for contamination like silicone sealants being used on the exhaust flanges or burning antifreeze or engine oil. If there is a source of contamination and it does not get repaired, it will only cause a new sensor to also fail.
To answer your question about what it does:
The downstream O2 sensors monitor the post-catalyst oxygen in the exhaust system to allow the engine computer to determine if the catalytic converters are in good condition and working properly.
You will need to extract the fault codes from your vehicle's computer, as follows:
1) Turn ignition key: ON, OFF, ON OFF, ON (leave in ON position)
2) The Check Engine light (CEL) should start flashing
3) Read codes as follows:
- First group of flashes indicate 1st digit of code (followed by short pause)
- Second group of flashes indicate the 2nd digit of code (followed by short pause)
Note: a long pause separates each fault code, then codes will repeat again
FIRST YOU TURN IGNITION SWITCH ON WITH ENGINE OFF.LOOK AT MIL LIGHT IT SHOULD COME ON 3 SECONDS THEN GO OFF IT NOT THEN YOU GOT BURN OUT BULB OR A CIRCUIT PROBLEM.IF ALL IS WELL. ATTEMPT TO START ENGINE.TURN OFF IGNITION. WITH OUT STARTING ENGINE.TURN IGNITION ON OFF ON OFF AND WITHIN 5 SECONDS RECORD 2 DIGIT DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES.DISPLAYED BY FLASHING MIL LIGHT.YOUR MIL FLASHES WILL BE YOUR CODE LIKE THE MIL LIGHT FLASHES 5 TIMES THEN PAUSE FLASHES 3 TIMES THAT CODE 53 THAT YOUR CODE.IT LIKE MORSE CODE.WHEN DONE TURN OFF IGNITION SWITCH.GO TO AUTO ZONE OR ADVANCE AUTO GET HAYNES COMPUTER CODE BOOK. TO GET CODE MEANING OR WHAT SENSOR GONE BAD.HOPE THIS CAN BE SOME HELP.
