Blink code 5,10 on CA car

[EngineerSam]

I have to blink codes on the flashing diagnostic box.

5 is outside air temperature ( easy fix ) intake tube driver side headlight.

10 is heat exchanger temp sensor right side???? What the heck is a heat exchanger? Radiator? Where?

Are you using the built-in LED + button mounted in front of the CAN box? If so, that is showing codes from Diagnostic Module only... and your screenshot was showing a code list for the climate control unit. Totally different systems.

Yes the DM 5 blinks and 10 blinks

I do not have a code reader.

I'm looking in the wrong place?

Yup. Most of what you need is in the top/Sticky threads in the De-Coding subforum:

De-Coding

Information pertaining to diagnostic codes, how to obtain and dechiper them, and how to remedy them.

www.500eboard.co

Using the PDF file you'll find in there, DM codes 5 and 10 are EGR inoperative, and MAF voltage too high/low, respectively.

If you clear these and they keep coming back, there's an issue with those systems. EGR is pretty likely to be a vacuum problem, but could also be a clogged pipe inside the intake. MAF is harder to troubleshoot without live data from a digital scanner.

Thanks a lot! Goin to drive my 400 to work now! I haven't been able to drive it in nearly a year! Let's see how it goes!

When I get home from Yuma, AZ I'll check it out.

I'd see if that MAF code is persistent before going on a long trip. The EGR code isn't a big deal, more of a nuisance.

Oh, and you need to get a hand-held blink code reader so you can check codes on all the other modules!

36 miles each way. So far so good!

I took off before I read your post
