# FALSE CODE 43 SET NEW SERVICE PROM P/N'S

#### MODEL AND YEAR: 1987 CELEBRITY, CAVALIER, CORSICA, BERETTA WITH 2.8L PFI ENGINE (CODE W)

Some 1987 Celebrity, Cavalier, Corsica, and Beretta models equipped with the 2.8L PFI engine may set a false code 43. The false code will be set under a deep, part throttle crowd between 3400 and 4400 engine RPM. As a result of setting this code, the "service engine soon" light will come on and generally will stay on until the ignition key is turned off. A Code 43 will be stored.

To service customer complaints, perform service diagnosis for Code 43 as defined in the Service Manual, Section 6E3, to correct any of the following conditions: faulty knock sensor, "intermittents", faulty connections, or open or shorted wiring problems.

To correct the Mem-Cal, a new part number Mem-Cal will be required.

The part numbers and model applications are listed on the reverse side of this bulletin. CELEBRITY --------- AXTLE EMISSION MEM-CALS MODEL TRANS.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
