There are two sets of leads under the dash, steering column side, one set black, one set green. connect black leads ignition on, but do not start the engine! this will allow the engine management light to blink out the code (long blink = 10 short blink =1)

connect green leads, drive car for 1 min at over 10 mph, stop and hold car revs at 2000rpm

you will then get four long blinks from engine light, disconnect leads and problem is cleared from memory!

mine turned out to be a sticky waste gate!

oh and if engine light is on very often, car will not rev past 4200 rpm as it goes into defense mode if it senses a problem!!
