Re: pm5 ecu question
na i know the ecu isnt bad cause it starts and runs fine. but thanks for the offer. i drive it down the road fine everyday. and i dont think the tps is bad cause it doesnt idle up and down like normally when a tps goes bad.

43 Fuel Supply System
To check code 15 I would say:
-Turn the vehicle off, remove hazard fuse in main box to reset the ecu or you could unplug the ecu. Start it again and see if the code comes back, if it doesnt the problem could be intermittent.
-If it stays on disconnect the two wire plug at the dizzy, test the yellow and black wire (ive had one actually have a break in the wire and cause this same problem)
-The ecu could POSSIBLY be bad, there have been known faults for this exact problem.
-If the problem is still present with a known good ecu, replace the ignitor unit.
Good luck and kinda do the same thing with the TPS, make sure all of your connections and pen tensions are good and that you have voltage going in the right places and right amount, if not replace it! I have a TPS sensor if you need one and are close to VA beach, I could give it to you.
