ka24de problem....

SON240sx Automotive

Hi everyone, some of you may have read my previous posts, but I am fairly new to the world of Nissan and need some help on the ka motor.

I just recently purchased my 240, and have finished all the work that it needed…

  1. new rad support (welded one in)
  2. gas tank
  3. front stabilizer bar and brackets
  4. front struts
  5. injectors
  6. a damn good coat of underbody protection
  7. new radiator

Before I started my work, the car ran fine, no problems

I just finished doing all the work it needed done this weekend and left it run (but stupid me) let it run out of gas.

I filled the tank again (from gas cans), and cant get the damn thing to start. I checked for fuel and spark and its actually getting both.

I dont know what the problem could be?..maybe a sensor?

I have no clue how these engines work or what goes wrong with them as I have always worked on Honda’s. What do you guys suggest? I did run the ecu in diagnostic mode and got the following:

2 long blinks
3 short blinks
4 short blinks
4 short blinks

then one long blink (i’m guessing this is to tell you its gonna restart the code)

then it ran the above again…

Anyone knows what it means? I have no repair manual and could use the help

Thanks!!

23 - Idle switch (throttle valve switch) signal circuit open

44 - No trouble codes stored in ECU

These are the codes you describe. I would double-check. Here are the rest:

================
11 - Camshaft position sensor
12 - Mass Air Flow Meter Sensor
13 - Coolant Temperature sensor circuit
14 - Vehicle Speed Sensor signal circuit is open
15 - Mixture ratio is too lean despite feedback control; fuel injector clogged
21 - Ignition signal in the primary circuit is not being entered to the ECU during cranking or tuning
22 - Idle speed control valve or circuit
23 - Idle switch (throttle valve switch) signal circuit open
24 - Park/Neutral switch malfunctioning
25 - Idle Air Control Valve
28 - Cooling fan
29 - Fuel system rich
31 - ECU internal problem
32 - EGR malfunction (California models)
33 - Front O2 sensor
34 - Detonation (Knock) Sensor
35 - Exhaust Gas Temperature sensor (California models)
36 - EGRC-BPT valve
37 - Closed Loop
41 - Intake Air temperature sensor
43 - Throttle Position Sensor
44 - No trouble codes stored in ECU
45 - Injector fuel leak (California models only)
51 - Fuel injector circuit open (California models only)
53 - Oxygen sensor (300ZX right side)
54 - Short between automatic transmission control unit (TCU) and ECU
55 - Normal engne management system operation is indicated – this means all is OK.
65 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 4
66 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 3
67 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 2
68 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 1
71 - Misfire Detected - Random
72 - Catalytic Converter Malfunction
74 - EVAP pressure sensor
75 - EVAP leak
76 - Fuel injection system
77 - Rear O2 sensor
81 - Vacuum cut bypass valve
82 - Crankshaft Position Sensor
84 - Automatic Tranny-to-Fuel Injection Communication Line
85 - VTC solenoid
87 - EVAP canister purge control
91 - Front oxygen sensor
95 - Crank Cog
98 - Coolant temperature sensor
103 - Park/neutral switch
105 - EGR and canister control valve (Solenoid)
108 - EVAP volume control
111 - Inhibitor Switch
112 - Vehicle Speed Sensor A/T
113 - A/T 1st Signal
114 - A/T 2nd Signal
115 - A/T 3rd Signal
116 - A/T 4th Signal or TCC
118 - Shift Solenoid/V A
121 - Shift Solenoid/V B
123 - Overrun Clutch S/V
124 - TOR Converter Clutch SV
125 - Line Pressure S/V
126 - Throttle Position Sensor A/T
127 - Engine Speed Signal
128 - Fluid Temp Sensor
(From a GUIDE I found)

Good luck.
