I have a question I have a 99 amigo 2.2 the check engine light comes on for about 3 days and then goes off for the same amount of time. I have had it to isuzu and 2 other mechanics and it comes up misfire and cam sensor whcih i have changed and it still does the same thing. Ihave changed the egr valve both 02 sensore plugs wires cam sensor computer map sensor coil pac injectors and about everything else and it still comes on and goes off. Anybody have any ideas,I'm at a loss.the motor runs mint and doesn't miss.Has anybody run into this problem.thanks LOU

I have a 2000 and the check engine light comes on when the fuel light comes on and is below 1/4 of a tank. Once filled up and running it will eventually go away. I don't know of that the issue but I have experienced this.

Hi Dennis yeah mine goes on and goes off every couple of days of driving.It's only a backup car and I bought a v6 one that Im putting a motor in and want to sell this one but I don't want to sell with the light on .Thanks lOU

Great, Best of luck, and when your trying to sell don't forget to show the statement on the gas cap about the engine light, this might also help sell it.


Dennis

u may have a cloged catilytic converter, i did in my 98 amigo and it ran teriable, i hust cut it out and put in a piece of stright pipe and it runs better than ever

ok 2 things isuzus are really sensitive when it comes to plugs,have seen many come in to the dealership with a cel and a misfire code but appears to be running fine replace with factory plugs and it never comes back,the other thing with the 4 cyl engine its notorious for the head gasket leaking particularly on the #4 cyl

there is some more things also, cam sensors and when you have the plugs out look for carbon tracked wires they are bad about this, I have seen more vehilcles with cam sensor failures. Also if it is a cam sensor and you don't replace it, it may melt and get into the timing gears on the cams and then you will have major problems

I changed the cam sensor and the light still comes on.It is getting better though,now sometimes it stays off for a week

after the cam sensor is change you must do crankshaft position sensor relearn, to do this you need a tech 2, or take it to your isuzu dealer and let them know you changed the cam sensor

Hi I called the only Isuzu dealer near me and they said they didn't know of any procedure.I called another one in a diferent state and they knew about it,but I'm not driving there thanks LOU

have instaled hundreds of themand never once did any kind of relearn procedure and never once had an kind of problem

What city and state do you live in?

If you watch the scanner while test driving you will see every now and then misifres on random cylinders

Hi the light seems to be getting better,it's off way more then it's on and sometimes it will go off 3 times in a week and then not again for 2 weeks.I've had it go off and pull inot deli get a soda and start truck up and it's off again.I put it on a mac scan tool and it comes up all systems passed.Is it possible the cam is learning to reprogram by itself?

crank angle relearn procedure,can be only set up with the tech 2 like master tech said.i cant believe the isuzu dealer said that they never heard of such a thing,or you just spoke with the wrong person.any time the engine is changed esp the pcm this procedure needs to be done or the check engine light will come on.try this.......take your vehicle back to the dealer an speak with an actual tech out in the service lane the service writers, dont know anything.i fully agree with master tech get the procedure done next before you do anything else.

oh an post back for us tell us what happened, HA HA HA HA..no wonderpepole hate taking the vehicles back to the dealers.

I hate to go back to the dealer,they sell mostly Suzuki but I'm going to go and get it done this week.I will post if the light stays off thanks

are you in georgia?

No Long Island NY

these techs are right im also a isuzu tech and the cam sensor has to be relearned.

biglou, just wondering, did your light ever go off permanently. I just put a new engine in my 99 4 cyl 5 spd, and the check engine light has been coming on, then going off. I had the code checked the first time it came on and it was for a "random misfire". I have been driving the car for about two weeks since putting in the new engine. Last friday I found the battery ground loose where it connects to the engine. The mechanic had hand started the bolt but not tightened it. The light went off after I fixed this, but it came back on after about 100 miles. The light now comes on for about a day and then goes off for about a day. It seems to stay off longer each time. Is thisthe result of the computer learning the new engine? I asked the isuzu dealer in my area about the "cam sensor relearn" and they had never heard of this. The car is running great and the light is only mildly anoying.

Hi I never went back to the dealer,theres only one around here and they basically work on Suzuki's.I don't have confidence that they know what there doing.i just changed the motor on a v6 one and had no light problems.i changed the cam sensor last time and it stayed off a little longer but as soon as you get up to highway speeds it goesoff.It stays off and then goes back on.Im totally stumped,i changed every part and sensor on this truck with no avail.let me know if you find out anything,i was thinking it might be a ground somewhere.the harness a a common ground that splits and runs from cam and crank sensor to on wire where it splits.keep in touch if you find out.I have changed the cam sensor 4 times with same results so dont bother doing that.
