Check charging system error plus much more...

[iRoush]

Anyone seen this before?

It says to check charging system on my screen. See the video below for the other stuff. Also, my A/C is blowing only hot air. People online are saying check the battery but I'm having no cranking issues and the radio is fine. Car also runs fine. But I'm in Miami with no A/C. Plus, none of my gauges are working. And it tells me I have no fuel when I have a full tank.

Same thing happened to me when my alternator went bad last year. I would check the battery 1st.

Even the AC? Strange. I guess maybe the system pulls power from that.

When mine went south the radio wouldn't work and the windows would not roll down, it was the middle of July in Ga and I think the temp was around 99 that day, my wife was bitching up a storm, then 5 minutes later the car died all together. Low voltage will cause all kinds of things to go wrong.

Fuck. Thanks. I'm going right at 6 to get it looked at. Thank you again. I'll post later with results.

Bet the bitching got even better when the car died. LOL...

These cars are very temperamental when it comes to electric. Voltage starts dropping below the threshold of a component and it starts going bug shit.

^^ Yea I'm starting to see that. I was just worried something was breaking due to the motor swap...

If you need me, just let me know I'll come scoop ya or get a battery for ya.

 

[iRoush]

If you need me, just let me know

LOL! Thanks bro. I'm gonna hit the Autozone in 4 mins on Copans by I95. You're car needs to stay put with them broken gears.

LMAO!

I'll just go to the Autozone by your house. Not that far... My battery SHOULD outlast your gears.

I started cussing loudly so I couldn't hear the other noise!

[iRoush]

Well. Shit it still broke. Alternator and battery are all fine.

New problem. Can't even retune the car. When the tuner is plugged in, I can't get any tune to load. Almost like the OBD port isn't working. But the tuner gets power.


Sent from my iPhone 4, don't hate, it has a supercharger.

 

[iRoush]

Ok. Weirdly, the car fixed itself. I was able to retune. Lets see how it behaves today. A friend told me to check the ground wires. So, I shall today after work.

iroush is starting to act like trina...told you thats what happens when they start hanging out together lol

Yea man. She's a bad influence. haha!!

So update:

I will be going over the entire car this weekend looking for a loose ground wire. When going over bumps the car fixes itself then breaks again. Then fixes on the last bump..

One thing, this is more for GT500 guys, even when the car is working fine, the boost gauge on my cluster is not working at all. I checked the connections, everything it hooked up. Any ideas on that?
