I have had my 4wd service light on and took it to the dealer, they said that they reset that code and I should never get it again. As soon as I drove it off the parking lot , my Tarmac blinks all the way home... I called the dealer back up and taking it n....what is the cause of the Tarmac light blinking all off a sudden??????

 

instead of having them clear the code, find out what the code is and post it.

Also how many miles? This thread might help:

"Another one bites the dust"

my guess: see any ACD/AYC pump thread

 

Te code is C16F......the dealership told me that it some kind of protection measure for the pump

 

fellow 542?

 

Yup, that's my guess too. RIP ACD pump.

 

the major cause of acd pump failure is cold climates right? what is the second most popular cause?

 

Nope. Corrosion. See any recent ACD/AYC pump thread.

Maybe cold, but I've yet to see a pump with a dead motor and no corrosion, so it's a distant second.

 

So u guys think for sure the pump is gone and not the bull**** the dealership is trying to tell me

 

thanks for that info. for some reason, i was under the impression that acd pump failure is only for colder climate folks.

let me guess, the acd/ayc pump is exposed to the element. knowing i wouldn't be surprised if it's exposed to the elements.

 

If you have a C161F code, it's most likely dead. It's not the dealer's fault that Mitsu told them to tell you some nonsense about cold weather.
