P0202 code...multiple christmas lights on dash

[Mike Duhaime]

So pissed. Just moving in my son and the truck acts up! Serious lack of power and all warning lights on dash. I checked TSB's and searched GM data. Found wire chafing common and can cause this code. Desperate, i crawled under hood and pulled that crappy harness at every spot they mentioned. Nada. Still shook. I know from years of repairing equipment that moving a harness that's chafing will cause immediate relief or symptom to get worse. Since no change, the next possibility was the #2 injector itself. It's under plenum, so that means parts, gaskets....

Off to dealer. They verified it's warranty so the GM loaner truck was covered. 

Got is fixed in 2 days, but i'm ready to dump this as it's too freaken early for major breakdowns. 40,000 kms

Cant buy anything reliable these days

Looking for an 80's GM with Quadrajet carb just to occasionally pull my trailer. So done with modern crap.

what you need to do is find a manufacturer that makes a vehicle good enough that they don't even bother with having a warranty.

you would have to go back to the 60's for that
