  1. Any news on this issue? Was it grounding/ alternator or battery related. Trying to track down my ER HC issue. I started looking at grounds last night but no improvements. Next I'll check alternator i guess.
  2. Is it ok to repost my problem into troubleshooting area. This really isn't a warranty issue for me since I have 180,000 miles. I don't want to upset anyone though if thats forum abuse.
  3. Does anyone have a Diagnostic guide for the ER HC trouble code. I saw a PDF posted, but I don't think it was for this specific code. I'm stumped at how to attack this.
  4. Thats depressing info strode but not terrible. (Honestly i think i'd be happy to pay 500 if I knew it'd fix my car) Subaru dealer costs scare me though. Plus towing will cost money. Do you know which wiring harness they replaced? Was it the entire harness thats in the engine that clips in near the firewall under the air intake? I hope not. Update on my ER HC. --------------------------- Got the car to run yesterday for three minutes after disconnecting the battery and the main engine harness under the intake for 10 minutes. Reconnected everything, started up, then died and flashed the ER HC code. Won't start, won't crank again. Something is definitely wrong if the car is starting and then cutting itself out and essentially locking me out of restarting the car. ---------------- My thoughts to check next are.... 1. Main ground on the frame. Clean that and reconnect? 2. ECM for loose wires under passenger side carpet? ( i doubt its this) 3. Is there a relay or fuse or something I should check? (since it started, then died i dobut thats it either) ------------------------------- Additional info 1. My power steering pump is failing and I've been driving it like this for over week (new one is in the mail). My power steering fluid was low I noticed yesterday. (it wasn't last week) 2. In 2500 miles since head gasket job: My engine has leaked 3 quarts of oil somewhere near the back of the engine and its dripping off of the subframe and transmission. (the underside of the heads and oil pan look clean) My coolant looks green and clean so my guess is my head gaskets are still good. 3. The car was clicking the day before it died on me on two miles from my house. Turns out my car only had about a quart and a half of oil in it. I put three quarts in and it has held that. The clicking stopped after filling the oil up. When it died on highway entrace ramp, my girlfriend said she heard the clicking again. (but the oil level shows its ok) 4. It might of run out of fuel 6 hours before it died on the highway. My girlfriend coasted it into the driveway. (I added one gallon of gas, three quarts of oil) and it started fine. Very stumped. When I put the key to the on position before starting I sometimes hear a faint strange "wrrrrring mechanical sound' coming from i think the passenger glovebox area. I am sitting in the drivers seat when i hear this noise.
  5. I'm in the same boat ast Strode. ER HC code, was running like junk, surging. Car won' t crank at all. Lights are all good. I have a jumper pack on the car too. My one battery terminal isn't all that tight though. (fully cinched down it still can be wiggled free because the post might not be oem diameter). Hoping that is my issue. There isn't much good info on this trouble code on the internet....
