2000 Pontiac grand am service vehicle soon light?
I had this problem with my 1999 Grand Am. I noticed at the same time I had a headlight out. I replaced the bulb and got it working and the light has been off since. After that, I found some information on the net in a forum which gave me this info:The Service Vehicle Soon (SVS) light indicates a problem with the body electrical system. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) associated with this Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) cannot be read with standard OBD scanners like those at Autozone, etc. In order to read these codes, you will have to take your car to a proper GM mechanic.However, the most common cause of a Service Vehicle Soon (SVS) light is a burned out or disconnected headlamp bulb. Check that all your exterior lamps are functioning. That includes high/low beams, parking lamps, signal lamps, and brake lamps.

On dodge Neon you turn the ignition key 3 times (without going as far as turning the engine on). Maybe samne on many if not all cars? Then the codes will blink and you'll need the ODB2 code listing. Other option is to connect an ODB2 reader on the car's connector and read the codes directly.

Is it possible to read engine codes in a 95 Bonneville with no scan tool?
AnswerYes, the 95 GM computers were the GM OBD1 standard and you could read the codes by connecting a jumper wire between two pins of the code scanner port, then turn on the key to watch the "check engine" light for the codes. You will need to research a little more to figure out which pins to attach the jumpers. Uh, not necessarily......My 1995 SSE is a transition car. The government wasn't sure what OBD2 would be, so they pre-released OBD2 to see how the car builders would react. GM reacted by hastily building cars with this version of OBD2. Shortly thereafter, the government released the ACTUAL OBD2 standard. They may CALL your car OBD2, but it may be a TRANSISION OBD2.The result? If you have an OBD1 car, you can get the error codes from the check engine light.If you have an OBD2 car, you must use a scan tool to retrieve and reset the codes. BUT, if you have a transition car like mine, you are neither OBD1 NOR OBD2. You have one of the infamous transition cars. They have an OBD2 plug (computer) connector, but an OBD2 scan tool will not read them! What you must make sure of when you buy a scan tool is that it will read transition cars. Some of these tools require a special adapter or cable to read transition cars.I hope you are not one of the transition people. If you're not, then your 95 is an OBD2 and any OBD2 reader will get the job done.Good luck.
