Repairing damaged wiring to TCC solenoid
Replacing the valve body
Replacing the TCM
Repairing damaged wiring to the transmission wiring harness

In some cases, the transmission itself will need to be replaced

I have this stubborn check Engine light and the mechanics in PH haven't been able to sort it.
Volvo xc90 3.2l engine

P0057 - H02S Heater Control Circuit Low Bank 2 Sensor 2
P0003 - Fuel Volume Regulator Control Circuit Low
P0190 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor A circuit

The last time I put it on it also showed me cylinder 1 and 6 misfire.


I've parked the car since as I don't like driving with Check Engine.
Previous things were easy fixes but the mechanic I used to work with hasn't been reachable for months now.

P0003 and P0190 can trigger misfires. However, check your plugs, injectors, coils, also check your wiring and electrical system too. I know someone who may be of assistance in PH. Contact me 07034581213

Check your fuel pump ASSY. The fuel pressure regulator may be faulty,
Check your ECT sensor, it may be faulty and causing hard start, also check your throttle body, it may be having issue.
Lastly check your ECU.

How the motor Dey do?
Re: Tell Us Your Car Fault Lets Assess And Fix Them by Originakalokalo(m): 9:33pm On Mar 26, 2023
Hello house.

Thanks to the OP and everyone that has contributed to the thread.

Honda Accord 2007 set a P0171 error code.

I have done a little research and found that:

1. MAF sensor could be faulty

2. Oxygen sensor

3. Exhaust leaks

4. Vacuum leaks

5. Fuel pump

6. Fuel filter

7. Injectors

8. Bad PCM.


I have tried to check the engine and there was no loose hose r something.

How can I narrow down the fault without throwing parts using scarce resources?

Thank you all for your anticipated responses.

Run a live data diagnosis on the Barometer, IAT sensors, O2 sensors and AF sensors on idle. You may also run a fuel pressure test. Pls check if the air cleaner element and fuel filter are dirty or clogged.

Hello gurus in the house, thanks for the other day.
I have another issue that has been for a while now.
My RX300 used to wobble while on 60km/hr or more speed.
I have recently changed ball joints, tie rod and low arm bushing as well as alignment yet the problem persist.
I don't think it's the tyres that are faulty.
What could be the cause? Thanks a bunch in advance
