OBDII Code Eliminator after Removing VSV’s
OBDII Code Eliminator after Removing VSV’s
By: Tom Cardone & Al Stanek
- Purpose:
To
prevent check engine light from turning on after removing the
IACV & EGCV VSV’s.
Eliminates MIL Codes
P1652 | Idle Air Control Valve Control Circuit |
P1658 | Wastegate Valve Control Circuit |
P1661 |
Exhaust Gas Control Valve Control Circuit |
P1662 |
Exhaust by-pass Valve Control Circuit |
4 Resistors: 1K Ohm 1/2 watt resistors (Available at Radio Shack) and Electrical tape.
10 – 20 minutes
Steps
::
-
There are a total of 4 VSV’s. Two are
located in front, right above the Alternator and below the coolant elbow.
The other 2 VSV’s are located on top above the rear turbo. See Yellow Boxes in
Fig 1.1
-
Two bottom VSV’s connectors as seen in
Fig 1.2 (Blue Connector & Black Connector)
In the Blue Connector, Install 1K Ohm 1/2 Watt Resistor. In the Black
Connector, Install 1K Ohm 1/2 Watt Resistor. See Fig 1.3 of the resistors
installed. After Installing them use electrical tape as seen in Fig 1.4 and
tape the connectors.
-
Repeat the same operation for the top two
VSV’s as shown in FIG 1.1
In the Blue Connector, Install 1K Ohm 1/2 Watt Resistor. In the Black
Connector, Install 1K Ohm 1/2 Watt Resistor. See Fig 1.3 of the resistors
installed. After Installing them use electrical tape as seen in Fig 1.4 and
tape the connectors.
(
Optional, If you
NEVER
plan on using these connectors you can cut them and solder in the resistor)
See Photo’s below how we cut the harness short and soldered the resistors in
line.
This was done to hide the resistors and harness under the engine cover…
This modification has been tested with success on two separate
1998 Supra’s!
