Pulled KOEO codes,can someone help me decipher them???

67
81
82
85

I pulled them, can someone help me out???
My car has a aftermarket harness, its made by Painless if that makes any difference.
 
67 = Clutch switch open, A/C left on, Transmission in gear
81 = TAD or AM-2(Thermactor Air Diverter)/Secondary Air Injection Bypass (AIRB) solenoid circuit failure
82 = Same as 81, but with the TAB (Thermactor Bypass), circuit failure
85 = CANP (Canister Purge) solenoid circuit failure
 
Well with 67, just make sure your car is in neutral and the A/C is off next time you dump your codes.

For the others, you may want to hear what jrichker has to say. He's the wizard when it comes to codes... hope he comes in for ya.
 
Missing information.

Why did you read codes? What is the problem. What is the car doing?

67 is the one that may actually cause problems, the rest are emmisions related. If the cable is messed up, the trans is doing one thing while the shifter postion is doing another. The ECU does make changes when the shifter is in different positions.
 
Agreed with the 67. Next time take the car out of gear and that code will go away.

As said, read Jrichker's old posts for the smog pump info.
The Charcoal cannister purge valve might not be working. That is not a huge deal, IMHO (of course, it should be repaired immediately ;) ). :)

good luck.
 
Code 81 – Secondary Air Injection Diverter Solenoid failure AM2. The solenoid valve located on the back side of the passenger side wheel well is not functional. Possible bad wiring, bad connections, missing or defective solenoid valve. Check the solenoid valve for +12 volts at the Red wire and look for the Lt Green/Black wire to switch from +12 volts to 1 volt or less. The computer controls the valve by providing a ground path on the LT Green/Black wire for the solenoid valve.

See http://www.veryuseful.com/mustang/t...ng5.0Vacuum.gif for help on the vacuum line plumbing.

Code 82 – Secondary Air Injection Diverter Solenoid failure AM1. The dump valve air diverter valve (front vacuum operated valve) isn’t working on the Thermactor Air System (smog pump). Look for broken or missing vacuum lines on the solenoid valve to the diverter valve Check the solenoid valve for +12 volts at the Red wire and look for the Red/White wire to switch from +12 volts to 1 volt or less. The computer controls the valve by providing a ground path on the Red/White wire for the solenoid valve

Code 85 - CANP solenoid - The Carbon Canister solenoid is inoperative. Check vacuum lines for leaks and cracks. Check electrical wiring for loose connections, damaged wiring and insulation. Check solenoid valve operation by grounding the gray/yellow wire to the solenoid and blowing through it.
The computer provides the ground for the solenoid. The red wire to the solenoid is always energized any time the ignition switch is in the run position.
