How do you reset the computer on a VW golf?

To reset the service lights on a Golf III, it's weird. You turn the key on (but do NOT start the engine), hold the odometer button, then turn the key off while still holding the button. Now press the hour button on the clock. This will reset the service reminder for an oil change. If you have an "IN 01", you must do it twice; three times for an "IN 02". If this is the only cause for your Check Engine light, it will go out after a few miles and stay out. To reset de computer to disconeect the battery of the car for 3 hours. Other way is with an scanner machine . The best way is to disconnect battery then hold battery terminals together for 3 seconds. This restores factory fuel and ignition map settings.

How could i fix code p0300?

P0300 Diagnostic Code - Random Misfire

Symptoms.
Engine may stumble or miss
Engine may be hard to start
you may notice no issues

Cause
Failing spark plugs or spark plug wires
Bad coil or coil pack
Failing oxygen sensor(s)
Bad fuel injector or more than one
Stuck exhaust valve
Bad catalytic converter
EGR valve or valve passage clogging
Bad camshaft position sensor
Bad PCM or ECM

The Fix
Best first action is a tune up, new plugs, wires, inspect all hoses and wire connections then reset the code. If it returns you will need to narrow it down to a system, coils and coil packs should be tested, catalytic converters for function ( do you smell rotten eggs?). A misfire that jumps cylinders could indicate a lean condition, do you have any other codes along with the 300? this will help clue you in to the source, check valve function to make sure they are opening and closing fully.
This is probably pone of the most difficult codes to troubleshoot, so start with the basics and work your way into the more expensive options, in many cases a good old tune up solves the problem, back it up with a fuel system cleaning and see where you stand.

What causes P0304 error code on 2001 ford expedition?

Got the same issue here as well. It means that you have a misfire in #4 cylinder. Most likely it is the plug and coil in the #4 position due to leaking coolant from the heater core. Check to see if there is indeed coolant, if so when you change out the coil and plug you will want to replace the hose clamp just above the plug with a "screw to tighten" one.

What does P1715 means on a error code received from a 2001 ford escape?

My mom's 1998 Ford Explorer (4 door 4WD XLT with a V6) just had the "Check Engine" light come on (it's shifting/running REALLY rough) - and when I took it up to AutoZone (they'll hook their code scanner up to your car and figure out why the "Check Engine" light is on for free). They scanned it and got the same P1715 error code - and their computer system said that this code means "Mechanical or hydraulic failure of the shift solenoid"...and that the "Probable Cause" is either "low or dirty automatic transmission fluid". I went and checked her fluid level...and sure enough - it was just about 1 full quart low. So I topped it off...and it's now sitting outside with the negative battery cable disconnected (to clear the "Check Engine" code). I'll run it again in a bit and see how she fairs.

Second opinion:

Unfortunately, by the time a transmission problem shows up in the ECM, there is major damage. Be prepared to spend money on an overhaul.

What is error code f60 on Panasonic dmr-es40v?

F60 is a general error code usually related to a failure on the video processing board. If you have access to spare/replacement parts, this is an easy error to correct by simply replacing the board. You can recognize this board as the small board with the onboard HDMI port in the DMR-EZ47V model, and has the mini cables connecting to it. It floats above the rest of the boards in the middle back of the machine.

What do you do if evap emissions code came up on a 1999 Toyota Corolla?

I would start with the basics depending on which code(s). Is it a small leak, medium leak or large leak? It may be related to the fuel cap or how it seals. It may have a leak or part failure within the evap system. If the cap doesn't solve it, find the local snap on tool dealer and ask him the best troubleshooting gargage for this in your area. He should know. This really isn't a d-i-y kind of thing for most.

What is an p0441 error code mean?

Trouble code P0441 means:Evaporative emission control system incorrect purge flow

How to fix error code P0401 on Honda Passport 2001?

EGR System, insufficient flow detected, maybe bad sensor? Your sensor is more than likely fine. It is probably the air intake to the EGR located in the throttle body. Take off the air intake cover and it is right behind the throttle plate. Just clean out the import to the EGR, because it gets clogged up and then the EGR isn't receiving the correct amount of air. Try that before you go spend the money on a pricey sensor.

What is causing my p0306 code in my 06 durango. it's a 4.7l . i know its the misfire code. the cylinder has good compression. coilpack is not bad. replaced spark plugs 2 times no difference?

Could be a bum fuel injector. Pull number 6 spark plug again, if it is wet you have a spark problem. If the plug is bone dry you have a fuel problem, probably a bad injector. Swap injector with another cylinder and see if the misfire switches cylinders or remains on number 6 cylinder.
