just clean out terminal or change the cable as i said before then you should be fine after clearing out the code.

 

Cleaned the terminals and used sand-paper on batter diodes and the terminal cables. I also found the engine to chassis ground cable when I took out the battery. I clean the end of it that goes to engine as it was hand reachable. The other end I couldn't open with the tool I had - hard to reach.

I didn't have grease to apply to battery terminals - would that be a problem in the harsh winter coming up?

Here are some pics of under the hood. I want to know where the other ground cables are so I can clean them.

Also, if you can please point me to the spark plugs so I can clean them as well. I think they will be due soon or maybe are rusty.

I am attached three pictures taken from under the hood from driver side to passenger side in hopes to find all the ground cables. Engine to chassis and battery to chassis is already cleaned. Where are the other 3?






Cleaned and sand-paper terminal on battery:


(-) Terminal cable ending to chassis was very corroded - this is what it looks like at the end - if it's under warranty can I just drop by and ask for free cables?:


This is the engine to chassis cable - Only cleaned engine side with a cloth. The body of this cable seems corroded as well but it passed a continuity test from engine all the way to the battery (-) terminal:


Why do these lights flash on the OBD2 reader? check following two pics. The second pic shows the indicators that flash ON and OFF:



Why does the yellow light stays on OBD stays ON when car is turned ON? The green light is ON when car is OFF:



Why does engine light stays ON when key is in ON position but engine is not ignited? The engine light goes off once car is ON. Is this normal?


Engine Fully turned on - no errors whatsoever and the old error code is not showing either. It seems that the error codes do not get stored in car once problems are solved. I didn't try to delete the error code from OBD. I just cleaned it and now I can't retrieve the error history again. I thought this would be in the history at least.


Thanks a lot guys. You been very very helpful. My car seems to run fine now. I guess the next few days, weeks, and months will tell more.
