Hey there, buddy of mine is driving my 2002 and is about 50 miles from home right now. Ck engine light came on and we pulled the following codes



P1693

P 0121



There was a sudden loss of response from the go pedal. Pulled over, restarted and seems to be OK for now... Anybody have any ideas???

APPS code will need to be replaced at some point. do a search onthe site for apps and you will get lots of reading material. hope this helps.

merry Christmas.

The APPS has more to do with the idle speed on the 6spd than the autos,and brace your self they are not cheap.

P1693 means there is another code to be pulled. hate to say it , but you're likely going to be looking for a VP-44

Here in the south we see 1693 set when the lift pump pressure (volume) is too low causing the VP 44 to over heat. But like Bob says, be prepared to replace the the VP. Be sure you are getting enough fuel to cool the VP though.

Low fuel equals bad VP. (Same in all systems whether they are gas or diesel)
