2002 Bravada problem




By jessie25 - usenet poster

" "
Here we goIt was 4 degrees today and my 2002 Bravada had to sit outside
for about 6 hours this evening. When leaving, luckily to only go 2 blocks,
the service engine light came on as well as the "reduced engine power"
light.

I'm sick and tired of paying top dollar for these automobiles, only to have
these types of problems.

Does anyone have any idea why this happened, and if it is related to the
extreme cold? It has 29000 miles, and has never had any major problems
until now.

Thanks.

If it's related to the cold the only relationship is that the cold weather
accelerated the failure of a weak component, but even that's unlikely. It
hasn't warmed up to more than 30 below here for a week and we've had 2
consecutive nights of -40 and cars are still driving around like they always
do. More incidents of flat tires than usual but few other cold weather
specific faults.
You'll need to read the codes to find out what happened but it's fallen into
the "failsafe" or "limp" mode designed to get you home when a critical input
or control has failed.
