Code definition help please

I thought I had most of it fixed on my sons new truck but I just finally was able to check the codes since rebuilding the alternator and replacing the batteries yesterday.

It's a 93 F-250 non turbo 7.3 liter 2 wheel drive BTW.

We just ran it around the farm once and got a full warm up cycle on it since we got it running. Batteries were out for a few weeks while I was working on other stuff so these are all new.
I'm working out of a 92 powertrain control/emission diagnosis ford manual and don't have the 93 book. I dont think these definitions are right that I found for 2 digit F series but here they are.

23 TP sensor out of range.

I checked it and it is. I'm about to go adjust it. I didn't see any glitches on it going full travel, It's just not adjusted right I think.

29 Insufficient input from PSOM.

I've never had to diagnose this code on anything before that I can remember. The cluster seems to be working ok but I'll see what I can find in the pinpoint chart about it.

43 I can't find this code at all in my 92 book. Anyone got any ideas?


63 TP below min voltage. Working on that.


I'm surprised about no transmission codes since it's slipping like crazy and not wanting to shift unless the RPM goes up real high but I'll see how it is after I adjust the TP sensor.

It will be nice if I don't have to rebuild the Trans!

Most of those codes were from me doing the test wrong. I had a senior moment and forgot to press the accellerator down during the test. I reran it right and still ended up having to adjust the TP but now all the codes are gone. We're about to go run around in it a bit again and see if the transmission is fixed. I have my fingers crossed! It's got 315,000 miles on it without being overhauled before so I doubt I fixed much.
