I have been getting an ecu light on my car come on after a few mins of running i've tried resetting the ecu but it continually comes back on so there is obviously a fault. The car runs perfect and as far as i'm aware there are no problems.
I flashed the codes from the ecu using the paperclip method when i tried to do this with the engine running the ecu light flashes constantly and doesnt show any codes or anything just constant flashing. I done it again with just the ign on and this time it worked however it threw up loads of codes.
i got
12 (initial start of codes)
16 (knock signal)
24 (veichle speed sensor)
34 (map sensor low volts)
56 (air control solenoid low volts)
92 (camshaft sensor)
93 (quad drive module) ((what the hell is this????))
now obviously the engine was not running so some of these codes will be related to that but which ones?
Which of these codes can i ignore and which ones are making the ecu light stay on?

quad driver basically means ecu shafted-the qdm is the application for the memory
