yet another psom (error 3)
got in my 93 idi truck yesterday, started it up, and my odometer toggled between correct mileage and "error 3". speedometer buried itself to 80mph whenever moving but went to 0 if stopped. odometer advanced normally (when not displaying error 3).
after driving normally for a bit, od light started flashing, odometer went to just "error" and e4od went into limp mode and started shifting badly.
my searching of this forum says error 3 means psom wants to be recalibrated. but why? is it fried?
today i put the instrument cluster from my 97 psd in. all is good (except tach is out of calibration. the psd must have a lot more flywheel teeth or something.
so i'm 99% sure my psom is out of whack. i know where its supposed to be but havent found the recalibration wire. will look again tomorrow when its light out.
my question: should i bother trying to recalibrate the old psom or should i just get another psom and forget it? all things being equal i kinda like the old odometer reading of 323k miles!
lose my speedo and truck barely runs. am remembering why i prefer manual transmissions!
thanks
