I had a five number five troubleshoot code on my computer for my vehicle that stalls when I'm driving and shuts off.

I am not sure of 5 number 5 code? Here is a guide to help you retrieve the trouble code so we can fix the problem:

It sounds like you have a crankshaft angle sensor or MAP sensor that is going out.

This guide may help as well:
