I shall do a direct feed in the morning.
Purchase a lift pump earlier which I will fit tomorrow as well, even if its not failing, might as well considering the price.
I have also read and cleared the codes for the EPIC pump using the paperclip method.
I had every code under the sun, so I am ignoring them all tbh. I definitely removed the plug from back of pump whilst ignition on on more than one occasion.
Has no codes at all now, but cant attempt to start it until morning. Neighbours wouldn't be happy having to listen to that noise again... especially at this time of morning.
One thing I have not been able to find is a full or partial list of engine management codes for a DSA927 epic. Besides those listed by several forum members across many posts, which I will compile in the event I get more engine codes.
- Code: Select all
For anybody interested, paperclip method is:
- Find 3pin plug in glove box next to the ECU.
- Turn on ignition
- On the side with the ident, bridge the two connectors with a paperclip for at least 5 seconds, then remove
- Watch the engine management light on dash flash (Begin of read is 12, end of read is 11, all codes are 2 digits)
- If you want to clear the codes, once you see 11, rebridge the pins, then turn off ignition. Remove paperclip.
Repeat the above to check codes are cleared, should only have 12 and 11.
- Code: Select all
