So here is something interesting that happened. Last week I took the car to have the recall fix performed at local Ford dealer. I did not reflash my SHO back to stock tune or anything. Then this past weekend, I have finally (after over a year!) finished my 3rd tank of 93 octane while running the LMS 87 tune. So I filled up with 93 and went to install my LMS 93 octane tune. Well my livewire tells me I have a DTC which must be cleared before programming. I view it and it pops up with P0230. I clear it and tune the car. Everything is successful.
Onto my questions
1) I noticed on the dealer paperwork - they did not fix anything for the recall. It says they performed diagnostics on fuel pump and no repair was necessary at this time. Should I be worried? I thought they would actually fix something?
2) The P0230 DTC is for Fuel Pump primary circuit malfunction. I had no CEL, but the livewire did give me that DTC... Should I be worried? I am wondering if this is just tied to whatever diagnostic they performed a week earlier at the Ford dealer? I read online that the computer can store DTCs for a little while, and that a DTC won't necessarily trigger a CEL.
Thanks in advance!
