Firebird troubleshooting

Sounds as if possibly your ignition switch, main relay, a blown fuse or you have a fusible link that has opened. You should first load test the battery to make sure the voltage doesn't drop out under load. It might be cranking when shunted but the voltage may be too low to provide adequate spark or operate the ECU. However you should check for open fuses in the fuse box since you have no instrument panel lights. If you have no power to the instrument panel, you may not have power to the ECU or fuel system. After that you'll have to trace back from the battery.

My 1992 Pontiac Firebird stalls in idle, i recently had the cooling system repaired an the whole top of the engin was taken apart and cleand. I was told that some time the car has to reset its self for...

Cabon deposits in the throttle bore and on the throttle plate will limit airflow at idle and make a reset difficult. The throttle bore must be clean first. Carbon deposits on the idle control motor can impede this process also, but they do not take kindly to a liberal cleaning. I would recommend a new iac motor unless it has already been replaced.

I need the reason for the ecu error codes for a 2001 firebird 3.8L code #01 P0601,#02 P0606,#3 P1518

P0601 means your engine computer has an internal error; P0606 means that the engine computer has stored in memory exactly the running condition( much like a "black box") that the vehicle was in when the P0606 was triggered. P1518 also relates to the PCM in the matter of low voltage.

Try testing the battery as improper voltage can cause all of these codes. Otherwise it means that your PCM has failed and either needs to be reprogrammed or replaced.

With our 2000 Firebird the Door locks also didn't work. A couple of solder joints became loos on a BCM module located under the glove box area inside a plastic case we had to remove. All's good now on ours after resoldering the locations I found on another site.

Engine codes p1518, p0125, and p0420 for 2001 firebird

P0125 sets when engine coolant temp does not reach temperature for closed loop operation within a set amount of time.
May be a faulty sensor or thermostat.
P0420 Is related to a faulty rear 02sensor.
P1518 PCM & TAC module communication detected missing or invalid serial data.
If TAC related repair has been done, clear DTC & recheck system. It may be necessary to preform clear codes function twice to clear this DTC.
make sure starting system & charging system are functioning properly. Low voltage can cause this DTC to set. This should help. Let me know how its going.
