Hello all,
Great Forum site. Hope someone might have some advice on this issue.
I have been trouble shooting an irratic idle issue and CEL. Ford dealer was of no help and like a lot of others, I sunk a few c-notes into their services with no real improvement.
I learned how to do the self test and was able to read my codes. I did both the KOEO test and the KOER test.
Although I am still working through the primary issue, I have created another one that I was not able to find discussed on the forum anywhere.
Even though I have removed the jumper between the self test pin and the single wire pin, and have tried disconnecting the battery for over an hour, the self test mode is still activated.
The Explorer is still driveable, so I am not sure if the self test mode is causing problems while driving. After about 3-5 minutes of driving, the CEL comes on solid.
Does anyone have an idea on what might be causing this condition? If so, what can I do to get the computer out of this mode?
Thank you for your help.
John
