Just the light/codes, the engine runs like a champ, lots of power,4 Cly, 16 valve ZETEC, the check seems to only occur at high rpm and is random.

There is a Technical service bulitin about false codes on your car you have to have the ECM recalibrated at the dealer to get rid of this problem I have the TSB but it is too big to upload I maybe able to post it on the net I would need your email to get it to you Private message it to me if you like .
