I went to the Autozone when all this started, and asked them to hook up the machine, but they told me that was only for cars 1996 and up, because older cars don't have the connector for the tester. However, while I was replacing the turn signal flasher the other day, I saw what seemed to be a tester connector close to where the fuse box is. So I will go there again and ask them. I'm not sure the PCM will show any trouble codes, because if it had any, the "Service Engine Soon" light should come up, shouldn't it? But maybe I'm wrong on that. I'll go there and ask them anyway.

Most cars 1996 and newer have OBDII. Prier to that cars had OBDI.

Autozone only checks OBDII.

Do a search on the web for OBD. look for how to get the codes from OBDI cars.
