I found that a 75 should be an evap leak.here...http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....de+75

Please correct this if Im wrong, Im still waiting on my FSM.

But what is a code 91? These apparantly are OBD-II codes, and I havent been able to find out what they mean

Thanks!!!!

Thanks for the help.... I found out through other channels that a 75 is an evap leak, and a 91 is a primary o2 sensor.

I reset the computer since I think the evap was from the gas cap being partially unscrewed.

The o2 sensor im not sure about. Its weird that the codes were triggered at the same time. Is there any reason for this????

those codes are odd where did you get them? a obdII code for evap gross leak is po455 and all o2 codes in obdII are po1xx codes. ie po 130 .. to answer your question no they shouldnt be related

I dont have an OBD scanner, these were from the ecu mode 2. I found the translation here...

How To Reset Your ECU

quote SaintlyCharBoy,May 18 2002,02:46to reset the ecu:1) get at it [editors note: look at quote below to see how to do this]2) (with key at on position but not running) turn the little screw thingy on the back all the way clockwise, the slot will point to a line on the unit wat 2 or more seconds (if you don't wait you'll just get different codes)3) start motor4) turn screw thingy back5) drive car with no blinky or shiny lights

[edit] the battery thing didn't work on my car, neither did repeatedly turning her on and off[/edit]

How To Read the Codes

quote anthony240,May 18 2002,04:57There are 2 screws that hold the ECU in place, one at the top just underneath the bottom of the dash, and the other is beneath the ECU to the side of the panel. Once these are taken off, take the dash screw off (right above the first ECU screw). Lift the dash a little bit while wiggling the ECU out, it's tricky but it'll get out.

Turn the ECU around and get to the back of it, you will see a knob with a notch in it beside a caution sticker. Follow directions above, but if you want to know what threw the code, follow this:

-Turn ignition to on position (where most of the lights are on, brake, airbag, etc)-Turn knob fully clockwise, wait two or more seconds, then turn knob fully counter clockwise-The service engine light will start blinking, count the blinks. The first blinks are slow, this will represent a first digit.-There will be a short pause, then the light will blink fast, these blinks will represent a second digit.-For example, light blinks slow 5 times, and blinks fast 5 times, this is code 55-If there is only one code, the light will just repeat the code over and over. If there are more, the light will also repeat each code one after the other.-Once you know what the problem is (or if it's just general maintenance) fix it, and clear the code by starting the car.
