Computer Code for 93 escort- what does this mean????

Nov 17, 2006 2 Replies

Hi, I have retreived the codes for a 93 ford escort with fuel injection and I do not understand the translation. The message that I get is "pulse width is wider than expected". That is not actually verbatum, but that's the drift. I have replace the O2 sensor out of desperation, but I still get the same coded error. Any ideas where I should be looking? Thanks



What was the EEC-IV code, 186? Check out the link below. Have you checked for vacuum leaks? I think a failed O2 sensor would just throw your car into "open loop" mode, not set an adaptive limit. Make sure the plumbing, etc. is tight before you replace anymore sensors.

Thanks Yes it is 186 and also 181 I will look at the link. I appreciate help very much.
