Question -
1995 seville sts w/ northstar. When I start the car it jumps to about 3500 rpm. It will stay there unless I depress the brake then the rpm drops to normal and stays there if I keep my foot on the brake. While driving, the car will stall if I let up on the gas pedal at low speeds. The service engine soon light stays on.
Your help please
Thanks

Larry

3. Write down ALL the letters and numbers that appear and how m,any times they appear until the display stops and indicates .7.0.

4. Turn ignition OFF.

S044 history

Answer
S044 = Drive signal fault.

P027 = Fault in the TPS (Throttle Positioning Switch).

P095 = Engine stall detected.
