No continuous codes stored

Truck runs poorly at times, light comes on now and then. How come there are no stored codes...I get 11 10 11 and that's it on a KOEO test engine warm. Is that a sign of a bad computer? thanks for any help

IIRC Code 11 is a System pass.....

By light, you mean check engine light right? It should come on and then go off when you start the truck up. If it doesnt stay on, shouldnt be a big problem. If you feel inclined to find out what it is, then try to recreate the times it does come on.

Might be something like a sticking sensor or EGR valve. It sticks for a sec throwing the code then clicks into spec so light goes out. No need to store code as truck reads it as operating withing specs. Hope that makes sense.....

Thats not good, I need all the help I can get

I did know 11 is pass, and that 10 is the separator, where are the stored codes for when the engine light had come on, during my driving home. When I do a KOER, after a bit it kills the motor, did that 3 times in a row, motor just dies during the test. If I'm not testing the motor, it'll idle all day long. I'm thinking that the computer may be bad..

If you can, I would run a freeze frame test and watch what all the sensors are reading. That is a quick way to see what system is acting up.

I would venture to say that you are getting an evap code. Caution when and if this is it, once you replace these components they all start to act up. Especially on highmileage rigs. Good luck

I have a Equus 3145, I don't think that I have that test option, I'll have to read through the book and check.

I don't think so. I have same tester. The tester diplays continuous memory codes after a koer test...with the little m on the screen.

So basically my code reader/tester is worthless for getting a starting place to look at, to solve this problem

Well while its not supposed to die while testing. If it doesn't throw any codes then im not sure. Maybe a tune up will help. When it dies does it just turn off like you did it or does it sputter and stall out?

The first 3 times was like I turned the key off...the forth time I gave her some gas and she stayed running...the results always stayed the same during the test, with the little r(means running) up on the screen, code 41(I have a ox sensor disconnected) ... but...It never gave me a c(continuous stored) up there for any stored codes, just stayed at the r till I shut her off after quite awhile..

Well the reader itlsef should store the codes if here were any in truck. Just turn on and hit memory. No need to hook to truck.
