Water to Air faults

Postby Adydas » Fri Apr 28, 2006 3:26 pm

Right, trying to help someone so see if you can un stump this..

Pulled codes, got a fresh 54 code, Intercooler on a ST185 RC.

Pump checked to be working, water level was low but has been filled to confirm thats ok. Reset ecu and drove 600m later FAULT light..

Whats the next best thing to check?

I wonder if the level sensor is causing the problem. Why not remove it and check it's functioning okay? Not sure if it's a n/o or n/c contact switch though. :?

Ah intermitent faults the, worst kind, are you the water level sensor would simply be no or nc contact?? Most sensors live that are variable resistor type things that then have a controller around somewhere after it to convert the signal or porbably in the computer.
Sounds to me like you have a plug almost but not quite in somewhere or a dry solder joint, check all posible plugs and connections 1st, Probably won't even be very loose just enough to wriggle about a little
