streetstyle Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Seat Arosa 2003 6H [1997-2004] Hatchback Hatchback 1.0 999ccm 50HP 37KW (Petrol) So as the MOT states that any engine management light will now fail. It's time to start clearing the codes. I have listed them below and will go through the process of trying to clear them, this may prove useful to others if they have the codes. If not its a record of what I have done. Using a cheap OBD-II system these are the codes I have: Fault Code: [P0116] - Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit Range/Performance Problem Fault Code: [P0443] - Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Control Valve Circuit Fault Code: [P0300] - Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected Fault Code: [P0303] - Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected Fault Code: [P0304] - Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected So speaking to a friend I have ordered the following parts (Car is longtime due a service so this is the first fault list). Fault Code: [P0116 / P0443] Water Coolant Temperature Sensor - [eBay link] Check all hoses and connection for splits or wear Fault Code: [P0300] 4x Seat Arosa 6H 1.0 Genuine Bosch Super 4 Spark Plugs [eBay link] Seat Arosa 6H 1.0 2 Terminal Genuine Lemark Ignition Coil Pack Replacement [eBay link] BBTIGNITION LEAD KIT Part No : 926VG0150 [GSF link] This is all currently on order and will update once fitted and re-checked for faults. If anyone else has a suggestion on clearing these codes please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Always worth doing a compression test when misfire detected unless it is obviously a duff plug or lead etc, ideally done before buying bits for it. Pull the plugs and look for problems there, should tell you something useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streetstyle Posted January 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Thanks @Sausage for the info. The car in my ownership has never had the sparks replaced, so think this is worth replacing regardless. Since the coil pack and the spark plugs was being changed it made sense to replace the leads at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did also just do a clean on the plugs and this cleared the codes, however we replaced the parts. I have cleared the P0116 code with the Water Coolant Temperature Sensor. Just the Fault Code: [P0443] to fix now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streetstyle Posted March 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Fault Code: [P0443] Has anyone got a guide (youtube/website) or location where the purge control valve is located? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
