poop..just bought a scanguage and it spit out 3 trouble codes... ('96 5.0)

[bmacd]

C0041 (??)
P08A8 (??)
P0141 (o2 heater circuit mal., bank 1, sensor 2)

I'm sure that the fact that I have a bad "donut gasket" on my exhaust is contributing to the last trouble code, but I'm not able to find any info on the other two. Your help, as always, is greatly appreciated.

C0041 - Right Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit Range/Performance

P08A8- I can't find any P code in the 08x8 range


If you just got the scanner, and just pulled these codes............I would just reset the computer and see if any of them return.

Didn't your scanner come with a book explaining all of the codes? The one my friend had did anyway.

Mine actually tells you right on the scanner but anyway. The C is a chassis code if I remember right, sounds like something ABS related and if you reset the comp. and it came back right away without driving it sounds like a wire is cut or disconnected. As for the 2nd one that is also powertrain but I haven't the slightest clue as to what, make sure its the correct one. And the 2nd one sound like a bad 02 sensor, not heating up enough or its shot altogether, I doubt a bad gasket would throw an 02 sensor code.

to clear up a few things:

1) no, the scanguage I bought doesn't come with a list of trouble codes. In the manual, it suggests websites likes "www.troublecodes.net" or something similar to print out all the codes for my car and keep on me.

2) The Charlie code is definitely chassis related, and I found out it's the speed sensor as already posted. I haven't the slightest idea of what to look at on this, but I'm going to hit the manual in a few minutes.

3) that third powertrain code still has me puzzled since I can't find any other troublecode that has a mix of letters and numbers in it, let alone a code that high in the range.

thanks for your help thus far
