    Hi All,

    Im new to the forums and just purchased a 2000 GTP with some issues. I ran a code scanner on it and came up with 3 codes.
    The 3 codes are p0481, p0481 (which i know are the fans and he told me he did something with these so i plan on taking it back to stock. The final code that i have is a p1351 ( Ignition Control Circuit High voltage). I couldnt find much information on this. Im pretty handy with cars and my first thought was to replace the ICM but id like to test it myself before I just start replacing parts. The only issues i notice while driving is when getting into boost it spits and sputters.

    Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I look forward to joining the GTP community!!

    After searching on the net this isn't a very common code that gets thrown on these cars. I just got the repair manual for it so I can start checking the connections and wires.

    Welcome, man!
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    Try looking it up at Gearchatter.com Work blocked it again or I'd link ya. They typically have the fsm pages and it'll give you some diagnostic aids.. Which is usually the answer to the issue.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Thanks for the welcome and the link. I reset the DTC and that code hasn't come back up. I know the car sat for a little while so it could've been a fluke.
