>From my recollection of older EEC-iv code, if you're getting a
code 41 for engine running self-test that means "engine lean", but
if you also get a code 41 from the continuous self-test, the engine
running self-test is just showing the symptom and not the cause, the
real cause being that the HEGO isn't switching. That means the
software isn't seeing the HEGO switch rich->lean->rich etc. Could
be caused by anything in the HEGO circuit downstream of the
processor chip as far as and including the HEGO. EEC-iv's are pretty
ruggedly made, I think I'd try mine in another vehicle before going
out and buying a new one.
