ECU Code 16

[ditch1000]

Hi,

I just picked up a 2013 M800 162...
It idles good but when you take off for a run it is sputtering and giving me a ECU 16 code on the display..
Anyone know what this code is and what to look for??

Thanks.

ive gotten this once before, I think the APV cables or power valves were frozen. shut off the sled and it was gone ?‍

power valves sticking/frozen/not working. if it does it all the time they either dont work or so gummed up they cant move. if its fine when warm then happens after sitting they could be freezing

Turned out to be the servo motor full of water and siezed up...
I took it apart, cleaned it up and greased it... Works good now!!
Cleaned the valves while I was at it as well..
The servo is still a little stiff, but should get better as I start to use it more...
Thanks for the points in the right direction!!
