You will need a computer scanner to read these codes, then a book or other source to determine what the codes mean Go to your local public library and see if they have a repair manual (Haynes or Chilton) for your vehicle available for checkout. OBDII system that requires a scanning tool to retrieve the trouble codes became mandatory in 1995. Prior to then, codes could be retrieved manually. If manual retrieval is available for your vehicle, the manual will instruct how to retrieve the codes and tell you what each code means. Another option would be to have the computer scanned at an auto parts store that scans as a free service.
Above the gas pedal, under the dash, there is 2 wires with clips that you plug together. Check engine light will flash the codes recorded in the ecu.
1994 year and up need a code reader to retrieve their codes. Most auto parts stores offer this as a free service.
what year????????????? Check engine light diagnosis depends on the model year of your vehicle. 1995 and later models have the OBDII system and require a scan tool to retrieve the trouble codes. For 1994 and earlier models, you can check out a manual (Haynes or Cilton) at your local library and read how to manually retrieve the codes - also what each code refers to.
With a reader. You can get one at an Auto Parts store.
Turn key on- off-on-off-on and count the long flash and the short flash. Looong-short-short = 12
