    ForScan connection issue

    i was under the impression the op was trying to connect with a pc. i've never used the mobile app because it doesn't support all the feartues (module programming). and if the op's ls is a 2000 he won't connect with can.

    ForScan connection issue

    you can change connection settings by clicking on the icon on the left panel that looks like a cog. he says its a 2000 so he doesn't have to worry about can. if he has the can switch on on the elm, i would think he wouldn't get a connection either.

    ForScan connection issue

    well...the 1rst gen ls's dont have can, so you don't need to worry about that. if the elm 327 device is a cheap chinese knock off, it may not work at all. as i said earlier, i stopped using my elm device because of connectivity issues. and with the elm, you can only read/clear codes. i use an...

    ForScan connection issue

    hey. what year is your ls? it could be a problem with the startup configuration of forscan. check your config settings. i think you have to chanhe the settings to a connect with can. there was a thread on forscan's forum a while back about connecting to can.

    2000 v8: exhausted & scratching my head

    hey. thanks for dropping in. the fuel pump is fine. pressure at the rail during cranking is ~50 psi. i did the pinpoint test for the pats transceiver and it was shot so i replaced it. i'm no longer getting the b1681. but i am getting u1262 on the ic and mc. running an osc scope during cranking...

    2000 v8: exhausted & scratching my head

    yes. i have 3 programmed keys. it does the same with all 3. Reference: - Ford Anti-Theft (PATS) if you go about half way down this page you'll see the pcm install/pats reset info. if i'm reading it correctly a pats fault, even with starter interupt, will allow a crank but no start condition...

    2000 v8: exhausted & scratching my head

    i just checked the pats job aid (ford issued). it Does show that all ls' have starter disable. now that has me really confused, before i changed my pcm i got a p1260. the car still cranked. after i changed the pcm (but before ANY module reprogramming) i got a lot of codes about mismatched pcm...

    2000 v8: exhausted & scratching my head

    thanks for taking a look. i'll see if joegr will chime in. from what i read in one of the earlier tsb's, the gen 1's can have a pats issue and still crank (tsb dated 01-06-02). it's possible i'm misunderstanding it. there was a pats diag bulletin that stated that also. i'm trying to dig it out.

    possible parts place?

    non critical parts only and only if i can't get what i need from Rockauto. have you checked out my thread about my no start problem? i need some advice.

    possible parts place?

    thanks for the headsup. i'm in indianapolis though. the Holland brand is abot $20 cheaper than Dorman. i only dealt with 1a because Rockauto only had Dorman bottles. Rockauto has been the main source for my parts. i used Rockauto for my tune up and front end suspension overhaul.

    possible parts place?

    we may be talking 2 different places. the place i'm talking about is 1a. did you get a chance to check out the link in my previous post? i checked out A1 looking for the bottle. i only found dorman on there.

    possible parts place?

    when you say A1 are you refering to the supplier from australia? i will contact 1a tomorrow to ask some questions.

    possible parts place?

    i've had that happen on gm vehicles no matter where they got the fp/su. on one, it turned out to be a problem with the gauge cluster. on my monte carlo, it was a pinched wire on the sending unit.

    possible parts place?

    yup. here's the direct link 2004 Lincoln LS Radiator Coolant Overflow Tank at 1A Auto.com the description makes it seems as if THEY manufacture some of their own parts. they also mention a manufacturer called Holland. Speedway Auto (local to me) carries the Holland brand but they didn't have...

    possible parts place?

    i hear you guys. but i have physically compared this against a dorman and it appears to be a lot stronger. one thing i've learned in my time lurking is to listen to you guys. since my ls is down for the moment, im mapping out the parts for a cooling system overhaul. i'll keep this one for...

    possible parts place?

    hey folks. has anyone ordered parts from 1a auto? they carry several aftermarket parts for the ls. its not as indepth as an actual ford source but for non-criticak parts it seems like a decent spot. i bought a degas bottle for ~ $90. haven't had a chance to test it out but it seems to be just as...

    2000 v8: exhausted & scratching my head

    sorry about that. it's a 2000 v8 sport. i have a pats transceiver but the weather is starting to get nasty here. i will be doing pinpoint tests in the morning before i install it.

    Hi everybody!

    i've started a thread about the issue but i dont know yet how to link it hear. short answer: it's a no start. after a couple of months working on it i have a code of b1681 (pats transceiver fault). thats the only code found that relates to a no start condition. but i beleive it may have jumped...

    Hi everybody!

    hey.good to me you. the "new" ls is a 2000 v8 sport. it's kind of sick right now. I came on here looking for help, but i think i may have figured out the the problem. I 'm going to do some more diagnosing before I post what i think the problem is.....GOD, I'm praying it's not what i think it is.....
