Where is a definitive list of fault code descriptions, as generated by nanocom? I have seen links to this site: ECU/Software Module Information System (http://www.blackbox-solutions.com/shop/help/) but I must be stupid, or blind, because I cant find anywhere that says Fault XX-YY equals "this".

There is a list of fault codes and descriptions (titles) in the old version of the Nanocom manual (ver1.2) (see :: Download - Nanocom :: (http://web.nanocom.it/download_i.cfm)) but it doesn't tell you specifically what causes the faults to be registered by an ECU.
The Nanocom site does describe how to use the fault codes in "General Information About OBD Diagnostic.pdf "
(also see :: Download - Nanocom :: (http://web.nanocom.it/download_i.cfm)) .

You really need to learn what causes the fault codes by reading the workshop manual to understand the systems and of course asking questions on this forum. The Black Box Solutions site that you referenced is also very useful in working out what the data readings should be and diagnosing problems.

ok....i have already read both of those documents. And i have RAVE, but nowhere, for example, can i find a description of what these two mean:

FAULT 03-05 driver demand problem 1 (INTERMIT.)
FAULT 03-07 air flow circuit (INTERMIT.)

driver demand i think has to do with you pedal http://www.aulro.com/afvb/1312463-post7.html

air flow circuit check your maf make sure when idiling your mass air flow is reading between 55-65 another way to check this is if your car is not able to rev above 3000rpm

For the MAF fault, Im already on it, new one due today.
For the other, Ive read in quite a few places that it has to do with the potentiometer on the accelerator pedal. I will take that as gospel.

But what I have been unable to find, is a source of definitive descriptions of the faults as described by Nanocom.

Advice is good, but im here to LEARN. (No offence intended to anyone who has given me advice)

i dont think there is a definate list but maybe if we all put our little bit in we can make a list which can become a informative list
