Got it! I went ahead and reset the codes again and this time DM/pin8/pin14 are all registering ones - no fault found. The CElight is still on the dash. I tried this procedure three times. Any ideas?

After code clear , you have to turn key OFF for 10 secs , key ON for 10 sec , and then start the car..the CE will go out unless you still have a code on the DM [ Push-Button]..

After following your procedure, the CE light is now off. I drove the car for 20 minutes on the side streets and it seems to be running fine. No CE light. Around the CMP sensor, there was a lot of "crud" that I wiped off before clearing the codes. Maybe this did the trick?

Go back into pins 8 and 14 after a couple of days driving to be sure . Remember , those modules can have codes way before the DM gets them and only the DM brings ON the CE lamp. So going there first will help isolate the problem faster . It very well could have been a poor connection at CMP..

Since the last post, I have been checking the codes on a daily basis. So far, no fault codes are resulting on the DM/pin8/pin14. I think the car is fine so far in regards to the fault codes.

From Post#2, I changed the rad cap and this seems to have done the trick. Thanks for all your help!

Cheers.

Rats! The CE Light came back on yesterday evening. Using the code reader, the codes resulted in the following:

DM:
22: Crankshaft position sensor signal faulty
25: Knock sensors or engine control module faulty

Pin8:
25: CMP sensor not recognized or implausible
33: Maximum retard setting on at least one cylinder has been reached or the ignition angle deviation between the individual cylinders is greater than 6 degrees crankshaft angle

Pin14:
1: No fault found

At this point, I'm assuming that I should replace the CMP sensor. Is this correct? If the CE light comes back on, then the CPS sensor or should I just replace both? What do you guys think? Is it safe to drive the car around until the components are changed?
