It could be a loose wiring connection or corrosion, or you could have a damaged wire. You can check out the attached wiring drawing to see what you can check to try and find the problem.

To correct the system errors I have attached the chart that explains what needs to be done to fix the errors. The error message you got should have additional words like "Excessive Angle" or "Low Voltage".

I have also attached the instructions and a chart for clearing Special Jack codes like "LF Jack".
