I'm after some help/advice please. For around a year I've had code P214612 occurring which I know is "Control Unit faulty, injectors supply, short to battery". FIAT Hounslow spent 3 hours looking at it(costing £540!!!) to tell me it probably needs either new injectors or ECU, which is exactly what my garage said, but they couldn't be sure which. They cleared the fault but couldn't cause the light to come on again and it didn't reappear for about another 500 miles or so.
My EML amber light is on again and my local garage(not specialist FIAT) have told me that along with P21462 I also now have the following codes: P226467, P018015, P224492, P124892, P211172. I don't know what diagnostic software/device they use, I've read here about MultiECUScan, I'm not mechanically minded and truthfully am perplexed by the whole thing. I'm waiting to hear back from local garage on his thoughts/diagnosis and plan!
After reading various posts here I think I should add that I've (unfortunately) never added any diesel cleaner and have used various unknown filling stations across Spain/France/Germany/Italy.
So my questions are please:
1) What are these fault codes?
2) Would it be more beneficial to get to a garage/person with MultiECUScan(A for Alfa in Aylesbury is my nearest)?
3) Has anybody had experiences which might help me?
4) Are these just standard issues that come with a van of my age and mileage?
Thank you in advance, and I hope I've been clear.
