Automotech o..baba come interprete this English o
Bros sorry for late reply. Most of these codes are electrical.
However to be sure you need to diagnose the issue to narrow them down.

The ECU also controls the transmission. I believe there is possibly an error code stored for that shift solenoid.
Kindly scan your transmission and let's see wat problems error code is stored.

It actually stays ON when engine is running.
To know what the problem is you need to carry out a scan sir.
That way the error codes stored in addition to proper Diagnosis will help point in the right direction.
Pls scan all modules and post codes here for further assistance

Please what is the cause of my Toyota Avalon showing headlight levelling signal and vehicle stability signal (VSC) on my dash board anytime the ignition is ON?
Pls kindy clarify so we can properly assist you.
Is it only when ignition is on or when the engine is running?
Because when the ignition is on, all the lights normally should come on as a Diagnostic feature.
However if the light stays on while the engine is running then we know there is a problem.

Please what's the cause of a 2012 Hyundai accent with automatic gear having the following issues:

It has a slow acceleration. Some times when I have to go over a speed bump, the car appears not to have enough drive power except I move back and go over with some speed.

Secondly it jerks when I am switching gears
Many things could cause this
1. Restricted fuel supply
2. Restricted air supply
3. Faulty air metering i.e. MAF, MAP etc


Its difficult to point you in the direction of what's faulty without diagnosis which would inclade scanning and carrying out some tests

Special thanks to Automotech
He has fixed the issue.. apparently the key needs reprogramming...
Removing the battery terminal with a key made the immobiliser not recognise the car...thanks to everyone for your input

But isn't the fan suppose to spin when AC is turned on even if it is idling? Then, should the fan continuously work when AC is turned on?
normally it shouldn't but one size never fits all...
Car TalkRe: I Do Not Trust The Cooling System Of My New Lexus ES350. by AutoMoTech(m): 2:41pm On Aug 27, 2020
ndidibabe:
Please I need urgent advise on this. I just bought the Lexus and it is not up to 3 months. Due to my experience with my old Camry muscle, I am very careful not to get the new car into any overheating mess.

When I start the car early in the morning, in an idle state and turn on the AC, the radiation fan does not spin. I think it should spin immediately the AC is turned on.

If I leave the car idle for thirty minutes and the temperature is even above the half guage, the radiator fan will still not spin.

However, when I drive around, the fan picks and works normally. Spins for a while and cut...

At this point, if I put on the AC, the fan spins but never cut until the AC is turned off.

I am afraid to visit my kazeem even though he is a bit learned and uses diagnostic tools. I call him Kazeem because he advised I remove the thermostat of my old muscle and connect the fan direct which I believe it's what killed the muscle.

Kindly advise.
your vehicle is a smart one. there is a module in charge of controlling the AC system. kindly carry out a system scan to see if there is any stored codes.
also a simple visual inspection will really help. check the wiring of the fan and other related systems.
also kindly note not all vehicles act the same way. for some vehicles, the AC fan will never be turned on by the AC module if the whether is cold enough. in some it will. i have a feeling your AC might be working as it should. however get it checked (not scatter scatter o) by a competent technician...

Is there any specific reagents for carbon cleansing? I have cold start misfire on Passat 2008 Fsi and no dtc. All literature points to carbon buildups in the intake manifold valves.
Yes there are. But most of them don't give good enough result. You can check online tho

Yes first issue is the overheat second issue it's that car does not idle, it keeps reving high on park as if I am firing it even on acceleration it it speeds on its own without my control
For the high revving...
If you can get a scan tool, check the Throttle position sensor value. Is it higher than it should?
Also check for vacuum leaks. A high vacuum leak would make the idle go very high.
