VAG305 Code reader

[savs]

Hello all.

I've just bought a VAG305 code reader from www.gendan.co.uk (http://www.gendan.co.uk) after some advice from this forum. Its great because i've managed to clear a non-existent airbag fault warning.

I've also got 4 engine fault codes. These are:

16795 - Secondary Air Injection System (B2) - Incorrect Flow
17536 - Long Term Fuel Trim - System too Lean (Bank 1)
18010 - Power Supply (B+) Terminal 30 - Low Voltage

Also got 18062 but haven't got the referance to that code.

I think the Power Supply code is from my battery going dead? although i have had a new one.

As for the first 2 codes, anybody got any ideas as to how to check the faults? Is is related to the MAF sensor. Just want to get the girl running smooth again. I'm sure the car has'ent got the power it should?:1zhelp:

Hi The two first codes i think are related to the the fact there is a leakkage in the secondary air system,check the hoses and connections.

Hi Kenny. I did have a vac leak. I did change the hose but the workshop light remained. Would it relate to that? If not, is it time to get the Haynes manual!

Yes,you need to remove the fault code which will be logged in the ECU

Cheers. I've noted down all the codes and then wiped them all. At least now my dashboard just has the blue lighting and isn't trying to communicate with me.....for a minute.

After research on here it seems that code 17536 might be the lamda sensor. Sounds plausable as i'm sure aint quite got the power it should have. I'll change the sensor and see what happens. That and cleaning the MAF.
