03 Ulysee has thrown on its Engine Management Light and now wont go over 40mph.

Is there anyway of getting the fault codes out by bridging any pins on the diagnostic port?

Is this a known fault?

Thanks
 
The car is in a "Recovery Mode" to prevent possible damage to the engine. this is common when the EOBD light is illuminated. Did the LCD information panel display any fault message when the EOBD light was originally triggered?

Sometimes if you swicth off the engine and restart, the "Recovery Mode" does not activate and the car will drive normally (Although the light may stay on).

Advice would be get an Indy or heaven forbid a Dealer to plug the car into the diagnostic kit to idnetify the fault.

hi, I,m new owner of ulysee 2.0 manual 1997.
recently my battery flat. and after change with new one... all the sudden light lamp, signal light and hazards light blinking all the way.. even when the engine start.. it so unpleasent condition driving with that sound.. then when i park at home.. then i cant start the engine ... my battery flat... so what wrong with that,s... do they have a procedure when changing a battery or to reset the alarm... how comw the battery drain so fast.. can naybody know how to remove that alarm radio code.. it quite not userfriendly i think..

And do anyone have owner manuals for this ulysee 1997-98 manual 2.0 ei version with petrol. wuld ilke to have one for reference.
