Code 211.....Profile Ignition Pick-up Circuit Failure.

I already posted about my car not starting. And when it does it backfires through the exhaust or runs rough and I hearing popping from the engine(cant narrow it down to where). Anyway this morning I ran KOEO codes and I got a 211, along with an 113 and 122, but I know what to do with them even though I never threw them codes before. Could it all be because of the same thing? Has anyone ever had this code before and how did they fix it?

The PIP is the Profile Ignition Pick up, or stator. It is inside the dizzy and provides the base spark and fuel injector timing.

you can get it a new stator from advance auto for about $20.When i had the code ,my car would just stop while driving and it would take a long time to start back up.

Click to expand...

113 = IAT indicates below -40*F, i.e. the voltags is way too low. Maybe the connection is bad or it's extremely dirty??

122 = TPS voltage too low. Maybe same thing, bad connection. Should be around .99V at idle and 4.66 at WOT.

A bad PIP can cause a miss/backfire situation like you have.
