The mechanic cleaned the contacts. No dialectric grease, though. I
checked the contacts visually today and they looked OK, but you really
can't see into the female plug on the wire.

It runs fine so far. There is a problem with surging idle when cold,
but this has been present since she bought the car 2 1/4 years ago.
Replacing the fuel pressure regulator and (I think) the cold start valve
didn't fix the problem. The idle is fine when the car is hot and oddly
enough the idle evens out when she stands on the brake pedal.

I noticed that this fault code doesn't set the "check engine" light, so
I assume that the 1-1-3 must have done it. If the AMM is not burning
the crud off the wire, that might account for that.

She reports that her mileage is perhaps slightly less, but then it's
also been 15 degrees or colder for most of the last week. If the AMM is
crudded up, I suppose that could affect its function and cause the
engine to run rich or lean.

Thanks! I cleared the codes so we'll see if they come back, and
hopefully will get a break to be able to work on the car a bit. I'll
pick up some contact cleaner and dielectric grease.
