    Hi My aircon compressor locked up and stalled the motor I removed the belt and now motor wont start codes are POC48 CO300 and C2bd5 cant find info on any but think CO300 is engine wont start when I reconnect the battery 12v It doesn't come up with any code just flashes the Ready indicator. When I move the gear to D it will then show the triage. Is this just an engine fault not starting It doesn't sound like its trying to turn the engine over even.

    Have you tried searching for P0C48 and C0300 (the second character in a DTC can only be a digit 0, 1, 2, or 3, it is never a letter O)? Sometimes you get more/better search results without the misspelling.

    I have to say, though, looking through my 2001 (US) repair manual, I am zero for three trying to find any of those codes. What are you using to read them?

    Hi did disconnect battery overnight and It tried to start I think but then back to flashing READY and not trying to start It would be good to get a Wifi reader to work on the tech stream I have but it doesn't give me the option to select anything except USB any ides please.

    What does your 12V battery read? And what does it dive to when the key is turned to start it?
