4.9L CEL codes
Was able to borrow a scanner, and here’s my results…
95’ 4.9L 2wd E4OD
**Key on, Engine off codes-fix first**
111 no codes present
** continuous memory codes- fix last**
212 no tach input to processor-spout
332 EGR valve not opening(EVP/PFE/DPFE)
*** END OF LIST***
**engine running codes fix second**
1st run Key on engine on
Fast codes:
412 cannot raise RPM(extended idle)
213 spout ckt open
332 EGR valve not opening(EVP/PFE/DPFE)
225 no knock signal during self-test
***end of list***
2nd run
213 spout ckt open
332 EGR valve not opening(EVP/PFE/DPFE)
225 no knock signal during self-test
** continuous memory codes- fix last**
212 no tach input to processor-spout
332 EGR valve not opening(EVP/PFE/DPFE)
*** END OF LIST***
can anyone point me in the direction to get these resolved?

Scanners are notoriously UNreliable on these trucks, and their code definitions are usually wrong, so all those codes are useless until each one is verified the way Ford recommends: using a simple jumper wire. And if you're using the wire, there's no reason to ever waste the time with the scanner. So just use the wire every time, and you'll save time. Read this page (a few times - it's long & boring, but the process is REALLY simple) & follow the relevant links on it:

The NEXT 2 pages are a printable list of code definitions you can laminate & keep in the truck. You should also put ALL your truck's details & history (as much as you know) into your signature so it shows with each post, as this page explains:

Phone apps don't always show signatures, so you may need to switch to a real browser in desktop mode on your phone, or just use a desktop/laptop computer. Put your location (nearest city) in your profile &/or signature, & upload an avatar of the truck. The more pics you post (NOT in your sig) of the truck, engine, wiring, labels, & undercarriage, the more likely we can help you. Not all its details are relevant to these issues, but you don't necessarily know which ones are relevant, so just put everything in now.
