I am looking at buying a 99 coupe with under 48k miles on her. It has some codes and was running just a little rough. I don't know much about the codes. I can look them up on the sites but I don't really know what they mean. I basically want to know if I have to worry about any of them or not? Are any of them things that need attention soon or right away
There are no C codes so does that mean that these are all things that were problems taken care of in the past?


Here are the codes he sent me that appear:

58-SDML:
B1001 H

60-IPC:
U1160 H

99-HVAC:
B0367 H

A0-LDCM:
B2282 H
B2262 H
B2264 H
U1064 H
U1016 H

A1-RDCM:
B2283 H
U1064 H
U1016 H

BO-RFA:
U1096 H
U1064 H
U1016 H




Ok, most of the codes are
- Loss of Communications with PCM
- Loss of Communications with BCM
- Loss of Communications with IPC
- Loss of Communications with LDCM
I have no clue what those mean. I can look them up and see the BCM is Body Control Module, but I still haven't a clue what this means and if it's something that needs fixing or was fixed since it's in the "History".

B0367: "Right Actuator Feedback Open". There is an old post here that talks about some $129 part in the left door needing to be replaced. Although everyone says the AC system works great with this code there. Is it something I should have done because it could lead to something bigger later or is it something to just forget about?

B2282: "Battery #1 Fault". The car started up just fine. Maybe it has a bad battery or it's the wrong kind. It was a DieHard battery in there at the moment. Does that even mean this kind of battery though?


Thanks for looking and any info.

since people love threads with pictures here is one of the car I am looking at.

 

they are all History codes.... if it was me... i'd clear them and run the car for awhile to see if they pop up again....

 

Thanks for a quick reply. That was the news I was hopping for. I am probably going to pick up the car in a couple weeks but will clear the codes and bring it to a shop first so I can hopefully find out about any issues.

 

I would also clear the codes too. After the codes are cleared, pull the PCM fuse for about 20 seconds, plug the fuse back in, let the car run for a little bit and drive it a little if possible.

I would check all your grounds too, see the sticky thread about electrical stuff and it should help as well.
It took me about 2 hours to do the easy ones, taking them apart, brushing/sanding down to clean metal and reinstalling.
My cars been running significantly better since I did it, not sure if I am going to diginto the rest of them since I dont have any issues

 

Great looking Vette
