Hi, I took my daughter's 2015 200C to the dealer for some A/C work.
This is an insurance auction car...great value $2900.00 plus fees...
It got hit in the front, high...bought a same color front clip from a
salvage yard in El Paso...
Last Monday, after getting everything but the A/C recharged...
took it in and it passed inspection and it is now on the road.
It has 'zero' problems so far...
Anyway...
the dealer recharged the system...but for some reason the A/C will
not turn on...the TECH thinks it must be a blown fuze, bad relay,
bad A/C switch or an open in the wiring circuit somewhere...
so if anyone has any ideas about that...toss it in too...
BUT the real problem is now the car will not start...
the TECH also updated the PCM and TCM...both were open recalls.
When my wife and i picked it up from the dealer...ran fine.
The TECH cleared all the stored codes...all that was left
was an ABS code... ORC B0003-14 Driver frontal squib 3 control - Circuit open....
I knew about it...that is what my computer also said...not a surprise...
it was hit high in the front...i have to look at the wires for damage/or
get a new sensor...
But after we shut off the car...it won't start...just cranks and cranks...
it was showing an error code in the middle of the dash of...
ENGINE WARMING - PLEASE WAIT TO START
When this message is on the dash...it will crank fine, but not start...
if you wait 10-15 minutes later with the key off...THEN it starts, sometimes...
BUT it will not idle...give it gas to keep it running...BUT it will eventually stall out...
more then 1/4 of a tank of gas...put more in it and still the same.
I can not find anything that DIRECTLY talks about this...
I did not have ANY problems other than Service ABS message and no A/C for more
than a week...until now.
OH...and now there are 12 codes last time i checked...nothing other than mis-fires
and fuel injector and such...nothing that talks about temp...or anything that jumps
out and points me in any directions...thinking about changing the temp sensor
tomorrow and see if that helps...or if anything changes overnight...
Any thoughts anyone??
thanks
Ken
