Code 26
OK, so I joined the black connectors behind the dash ( & got 2 long, 6 short... code 26. The list of engine codes:
http://www.scoobypedia.co.uk/index.p...odeDefinitions says thats "26 Air Temperature Sensor". On another site it says thats for a Justy, but I dont have a Justy!!!  It would make sense the Air Temperature Sensor is on the fritz cos I have noticed a few times its idling faster than it should, suggesting the choke is on, plus its using too much fuel. So where do I find this sensor? Do I just get a new one? Take it out & clean it? What do you guys suggest?

 ). This means that most of the codes are the same, whether for a Ford, Suby or Justy (can't remember who made them ... CRAFT disease, maybe - just checked. Thought the name sounded familiar - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subaru_Justy ).Quote:

The intake air temp sensor is in the front of the air cleaner filter housing (on an MY'03 anyway). Take it out and give it a clean, reinsert it and make sure its connector is pushed home.

Does anyone know what the air temp sensor's resistance is meant to be?
Also, how do I read my multimeter? Its been a while lol  On the 20k ohm setting, it reads 1.78 at room temperature. After I've been warming it in my hand for a few minutes, it reads 1.52. So is that 17,800 ohms & 15,200 ohms? Is that what it should be?

OK I cleaned the terminals thoroughly, then put it back in. double checked the terminals were plugged together fully.
Then warmed up the engine & reset the codes...or at least tried to but it wont reset!  What do I do now?

With engine warm & ignition off, connect the 2 black plugs & the 2 green plugs under the dash. Turn ignition on, engine off, floor throttle & hold for couple seconds then release. Start the engine & drive above 10kmh until engine warning light flashes on/off in "no code pattern" (about 1min). Stop, turn engine off, ignition off & disconnect plugs. Done...unless there is a current fault...

did the cleaning of the air sensor in the air box fix the issue?
