I found and replaced the obvious o2 sensor that is located before the cat converter on the driver side.
According to my Haynes manual, this year model and engine specs call for it having a total of 2 oxygen sensors, one in or near each exhaust manifold. I have looked and looked for the one on the passenger side manifold/pipe area. I have not found it.
There is no post cat o2 sensor either.
Any help in telling me where the second oxygen sensor is located (on the passenger side exhaust manifold or pipe) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.
On the issue of drive shafts on Isuzus, my 2000 Rodeo that I otherwise loved, detonated two transfer cases and was on it's way to losing a 3rd (in less than 60k miles total) when I got rid of it. I had to take Isuzu to court because first, they blamed my 265/75 tires and then the 2nd time they blamed the 2.5" suspension lift on the problem. Of course, research showed that no one in the avid Isuzu 4x4 community had ever experienced transfer case issues and after taking my truck to a custom drive-shaft shop as directed by the dealership and the regional Isuzu manager, I left there with only wasted time because they laughed and said that there was no possible reason I would need a double-CV driveshaft for such a minor geometry change to the suspension.
Most likely, it was the output shaft of the transmission causing the problem, not that we'd know because they never even inspected either of the two transfer cases to figure out whether the failure was on the input or output side.
How? I tried to remove the starter and I couldn't figure out how to do it without removing the exhaust pipe. What's the trick?
When working.
Turn on ignition- Lamp test then engine check light dissapears allowing engine to be turned.
When not working
Turn on ignition- Lamp test then engine check light stays on and flashes quickly. Engine will not crank.
Remedy;
Turn off ignition and repeat. This cycle is repeated untill flashing light goes off allowing engine to be cranked.
Yesterday I had to repeat 6 times. When engine did fire it died almost straight away. I then repeated cycle and started successfully.
I've plugged in my elm 327 code reader but no codes are logged.
Helppppppppp.
diesel is safe right uptill its high flash point.
A mechanic I was talking to said it sounded like an immobiliser problem and because the engine light doesn't stay on its not recorded in the fault codes section of the computer.
Has anyone else had a flashing engine check light on ignition?
Has anyone else used a code reader that can read codes from immobiliser system?
Looking for any help. Thanks.
Did you ever get your passport to start again after all the stalling???
