1990 300te Code 3 on Pin 14

Not getting any hits on another thread, so I will re-post here:

1990 300te
California Car, 147,000 miles, 124.090 body, engine 103.983

Ok, I built Arthur's home brew code reader as a project with my 10-yr old son. It came out great and works like a charm. Tested the car, found tons of codes (most are probably old), cleared them one at a time and then drove some errands.

Upon return I got the following:

Pin 3 - 17 Oxygen sensor is shorted to positive or ground
Pin 14 - 3 TN/TD signal (RPM) interrupted

I have 2 questions:
Is pin 3 picking up the same Oxygen sensor fault that I get when I use the built-in diagnostic unit on my car that reports on the emission system?

What does the message on the Pin 14 fault mean?

Thanks in advance.

Pin 3 addresses the same DM as the built-in Led for Cal versions.
Pin 14 is a TN signal glitch...try coearing it again and then see if you get a singler Flash on that module..if you do, them clear the memory on that one.

Arthur, thanks for the reply.

Yes, I was able to clear the Pin 14, fault code 3 with the code reader. Now a single flash on that pin. I will test drive tomorrow and report back with findings.

So what is a TN signal glitch anyway?

After 10 minute test drive, 3 flashes on pin 14 has returned.

What is it and how to correct?
