Arrow Need a DTC Turned Off

http://www.gearchatter.com/viewtopic9347.php

P0452B Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor Low Voltage

I have emissions thats past due and I have to get this done. Any help is appreciated. PM me.

Located in Connecticut and for this car I do not have have tuning software or cable so its gotta be in person. The code needs to be turned off and that was the only one kicking.

Not looking to drop the tank and most of the Diag info there requires a Tech II which I don't have so. Any direction is appeciated. I may have one lead but if you know anyone with access to software would be great.

Thanks!

-Aaron

You can send me the computer with the code you want deleted. Just add a return label.

He needs it turned off, not cleared, in order to pass emissions. And he is too lazy to fix it.

Autozone can scan for it, they will not delete it for some stupid reason to see if you fixed it. I know how so I just do it myself.

What I actually refering to is to remove the DTC from the PCM so it wont come back, ever.

I have something thats either a connection or a failed sensor but you need a TECH II to track it down and I am not spending 90+ Dollars per hour for Diagnosis from a Stealership. Autozone and Dealerships do not have the software needed eliminate this code.

Slowhawk was very kind in helping me out so at this point I am all set, thanks for the replies.

Nah its cool, beleive me, I do talk bout things like that often, been a hard year. Can still keep the car but there are times it might go... but luckily not yet. But if I told you I put about 17 gallons of fuel in it this year it would probably not be a stretch...

FWIW you can pick a code scanner and clearer on amazon for like 30 bucks. I know you're looking for a delete so it's different, but those scanners come in handy.
