Continuous Memory Codes

1991 Mercury Cougar LS, 3.8 4SECTION Continuous Memory Codes

These codes result from information stored by ECA during continuous self-test monitoring. Codes are displayed in KOEO SELF-TEST, after separator pulse code. Use these codes for diagnosis ONLY when KOEO SELF-TEST and KOER SELF-TEST result in Code 11 or 111 (pass code), and all steps under QUICK TEST are successfully completed. (There are few exceptions which may be checked after KOEO codes have been repaired). These codes indicate faults recorded within the last 40 engine starts. The fault may or may not be currently present. See appropriate chart under SERVICE CODE DEFINITION CHARTS for definitions of codes.
