Ryan.G Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Sounds to me like your speedo convertor and turbo timer were wired to same earth and auto electrician did not connect it back to earth after removing. Do search on overdrive flashing andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovervi Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 i thought code 42 was something related to ecu but i am probably talking sh1te earth sounds like the most sensible explanation like Ryan said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
