Yeah for tuned cars it says P0602 P1211 P1690 P0605 are normal. The only code the tuner says my car has now is a P1000
Click to expand...

P0602 and p0605 are related to PROM errors to do with the programming and the other two codes are not used by ford on the 2004 mustang

The p1000 code means that the OBD2 monitors have not completed since the last time the codes were erased and or battery disconnected Your light will come back if there is a actual problem once it starts to run though the drive cycle tests

The predator does say when i click on trouble codes that the P0602 P1211 P1690 P0605 are normal for tuned cars. I am new to the predator so I wasn't sure. I got it just for the stock tune and to calibrate my speedo for my 4.10 gears.

ive had mine for awhile but just started to use it... i got mine on ebay for under 100 bucks...my car only has exhaust upgrades and i had it dynoed...we got a 20hp jump with just the performance tune...


i think i remember it also says that while installing a tune ,,not to have anything on and door shut or a problem will/could happen and you will have to redo it,,,

i amit i sometimes over use mine to clear code 455/457 instead or fixing it,,

po1000 has popped up on me also,,

im not the pro here but i think po1000 will clear itself after drivecylce is complete,,it normally wont lite after reseting of pcm,,but ive come across the cel coming on and no code being present,,now i find if i wait till after a full cooldown and cold restart that cel could go out or codes will appear

p1000 is a dummy code that effects nothing IIRC.

the p1000 will not turn the light back on.. that code is just to let the tech know that the OBD2 monitors have not completed yet.


In a emissions state you will fail for a p1000 it's used to make sure somebody does not try to clear codes and pass..


Something else is turning the light on, it's time to use a real scan tool and get the code when the light is on.
