I ran the code reader on my car and it came back 17. There are 4 different problems listed in the manual, RPM signal, camshaft sensor circuit, ECM problems, or spark reference circuit problem. What is it most likely to be? My car will shut down after a while of driving and will not turn back on for thirty minutes or so, and even then it tends to drive rough and stall out again.
