codes 9 and 15
 

i was trying to wire up a toggle switch for my launch control last night, it was an illuminated one, so i wire the 'acc' leg on the switch to my kick panel fuse box. well, started smoking, popped the wire out, etc. so, turn the key, nothing happens, no lights, no nothing. check the ign. fuse and i popped it. i don't have a 40a fuse handy, so i hardwired it and got the lights and power back, but it won't turn over and i'm getting cylinder sensor and ign. output, all related to ign. obviously, so is it b/c i don't have the proper amperage fuse in there?? i'll get one today, but just making sure it's not something else :P

if the fuse is less amps than supposed to it will blow every time.. if it is more ampos ex 30a in a 15a spot itll work but is risky to damaging something..\\\

smoke huh.. sounds like a few blown fuses. ive done that before... driving down the road and your ---- starts smokin like a forest fire because i wire rubbed through and shorted.

Re: codes 9 and 15
 

well, the only blown fuse i found was the ign fuse, it's one of the big screw down fuses, so i stuck a wire in it's place, so technically that would be more amperage and should have at least started, it did fix the ign. power, but then i got the codes for cyp and ignition out put. is it possible i fried something else or would not having the correct fuse cause those??

Re: codes 9 and 15
 

might have fried the ICM / ingition control..

check the grounds.. like thermo ground for burnt wires.

that's what i'm afraid of :-[

Re: codes 9 and 15
 

dammit..i hate it when that happens!

Good luck man!

---- ---- tit dick. i replaced the coil and still no spark ??? i'm ------- lost, unless i fried some wires under the dash, i have no ------- clue. i started taking out my dash and fuse panel last night, looks like a shitty weekend :'(

Re: codes 9 and 15
 

test the ICM. (ignitor unit)

Re: codes 9 and 15
 

no, i'm scared

Re: codes 9 and 15
 

how do u test the coil and the ignition unit, when testing it do u need to have it in the car and all plug up? can u test it with a 7 function mutitester??
