Code 16 - Fuel Injector

Code 16 is probably the Main Relay, however it could still mean a bad Injector, Resistor Box tho.
Most failures occur, when the weather starts heating-up for the summer...


If the car refuses to start, but "turns over" on a hot day, try opening the doors/windows, and let the interior cool down. "Then try starting again". May not work all the time, but worth a try anyway. Also, would help in troubleshooting the prob, if it does start. Another place to look is the ECT sensor, refer to the above

Does it crank though, if so thats a classic sign of the main relay.

But just a little fyi , if you car ever cranks and won't start, you will always throw a code 6
