Gotta love a rig that fixes itself

[WormGod]

Found something interesting with dash CEL/issue lights this weekend. If I started the VX immediately after inserting the key, my CEL and ABS would stay on. If I waited until most dash lights cleared (ABS) and allowed the fuel pump to finish juicing up before starting, no annoying lights at all. There is a ghost in my machine. Almost as though they get pissy and stay on because I didnt allow initializing to complete before igniting. Go figure....

Worm,

I know what you mean. For a while, I thought that if I made a sharp left turn in reverse before taking off, the light wouldn't come on. That 'ghost' got tired of helping after a couple of days.

My Check TOD light started flashing at me again this morning. Rekin I'll hafta bite the bullet & actually read the code this time.

Shall we take bets on how long it'll take the 'king of procrastinators' to actually getr done??? I'm thinking it'll be 2 weeks before Moab 2011.

An appropriate new years resolution, and you could get it done a lot quicker.

TOD codes likely to be read:

1) Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much frigg'in Offset......to correct code....please decrease offset until light goes out. Also, consult Riff Raff on the ills of severe rotational unsprung weight & its consequences.

2) "Lightening bolts down the shorts" resulting in voltage overload of TOD circuitry. Either install proper grounding or quit agitating Zeus.

3) O.S. Tire hanging on rear door causing an imbalance in VX weight distribution resulting in TOD entering a "confused" state trying to compensate for Big Azz tire....remove Big Azz tire to restore default TOD settings.

4) All Protons do this as color interferes with proper TOD operation.


5) The owner is a smarta$$ and vibe is leaving an imprint on said vehicular operation. See "poltergeist effect" and follow instructions on how to properly balance your chi through ying & yang equilization techniques.

Maybe you should call those D-bags from ghostlab and they can come out and pretend that there is something in you VX?
