H Half Colin Senior member Mar 7, 2012 #2 I don't know but I doubt it because it's not a parameter that could be measured directly by a sensor. Other fault codes could indicate a loss of power though.

C cj_eds Senior member Stirling Mar 7, 2012 #3 As Half Colin says, if there's a loss of power there's probably a reason why - which a trouble code is more likely to be produced for.
