How an where did you see these codes ? code reader plugged in to the DLC -obd2 connector ? There are no such codes, the codes you are getting mean the OBD-II reader you are using is not compatible with your car. Try to use a different scanner

Temperature Valve Actuator Replacement Remove the fuse labeled HVAC CTRL (BATT). Completely open the instrument panel compartment door by pressing both tabs that support the stop bumpers. Refer to Instrument Panel Compartment Replacement . Disconnect the air temperature actuator electrical connector. 1 Air Temperature Actuator Screw (Qty: 2) Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section. Tighten 1.5 N·m (13 lb in) 2 Air Temperature Actuator Tip Do not adjust any controls on the HVAC control assembly while the HVAC control assembly and actuators are calibrating. If interrupted improper HVAC performance will result. Refer to Control Module References for programming and set up information.

My service esc light comes on, what does that mean?

THis is usually a clutch pack in the transmission that has failed.

get manual for codes---

p0442 means Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (small leak)What does that mean? The vehicle's PCM (powertrain control module) tests the evaporative emissions (EVAP) system for large and small leaks among other conditions. In the case of this DTC, it indicates a fuel vapor leak in the EVAP control system. It means a very small leak has been detected. In fact, the leak can be from a hole as small as 0.04" in diameter. The (EVAP) emission control system prevents the escape of fuel vapors from a vehicle's fuel system. Fuel vapors are routed by hoses to a charcoal canister for storage. Later, when the engine is running a purge control valve opens allowing intake vacuum to siphon the fuel vapors into the engine. Symptoms The only thing you will notice is the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) a.k.a. Check Engine Light will be illuminated. You likely won't notice any drivability problems although sometimes a fuel odor may be noticed. Causes A code P0442 most likely means one or more of the following has happened: A loose or improperly affixed gas cap A non-conforming gas cap (i.e. not factory/original brand) A small leak/hole in a fuel vapor hose/tube Other small leak in EVAP system Faulty vent o-ring seal Defective vent valve Defective purge valve Defective leak detection pump Possible Solutions With a P0442, the most common repair is to: Remove and reinstall the gas cap, clear the codes, and drive for a day and see if the codes come back. Otherwise, replace the gas cap (we recommend an OEM not aftermarket part), or Inspect the EVAP system for cuts/holes in tubes/hoses More advanced troubleshooting steps include: Using an advanced scan tool, perform an EVAP leak test Verify operation of the EVAP purge solenoid / valve Perform a smoke test to see where the leak is

Hi Beny, There are many problems that can cause the symptoms your Aura is having. One thing that comes to mind with a car that can't be started until the engine is cool, is a failing fuel pump. Some failing fuel pumps work fine when cold, but won't hold proper fuel pressure when hot. Another possibility is a bad ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor). A bad ECT can report the wrong coolant temperature to the engine computer, causing starting and driveability issues. Double check your battery cable and the connections to and from the battery, as well as the ground cables. Corroded terminals and loose wiring/connections can also cause issues starting your Saturn.
