    Default Fault codes.

    At the point where I now want to burn the car and be done with it.

    Put a X16XE into my nova last week and it starts, but I'm getting the following fault codes:

    Anyone got any ideas where to start?

    I have a plug in the bay that I've tapped up out of the way. Wires are a thick brown and a thick red with white chaser, could they be the problem?
