My Son has a 02 Olds Alero with a v6 and it has a P0401 code.
Thats easy, on my Ford it would be a DPFE. But this Olds doesn't have one.
The best thing I can find is it may be the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) Sensor. If anyone has any experience with these GM engines or can point me toward a good forum, I would appreciate it. I need to fix this ASAP, he took it for the emission test (for some reason) and it obviously failed, well they reported that to the state and now he can not renew his plates that expire at the end of the month. I guess I shouldn't expect a 17 year old to be sneaky enough to outsmart the state by renewing the plates first.
Thanks,
Bob
