Re: Check Engine?

If you talk to a mechanics shop & tell them you have an OBI car, ask if they have a scanner to pull the codes. Most small town good shops do have the OBI scanners around, if not try the dealer, or the Mr. Fix-It at work. The scanners are still out there. On a side note, a scanner that a garage will have or dealership will be much more specific on whats wrong with the car, then a cheap one you can buy at autozone, while the autozone one will tell you the code, the mechanic one will tell you what part of the circuit is bad (sensor). Last but not least you cannot reset the computer without the scanner, so don't even bother doing the battery disconnect of the old days.

Re: Check Engine?

yep, OBD one and a half.
although the after market stepped up to the plate to put low cost code readers for OBD2 on the market. i've never seen that for obd1, there was really no demand, with the exception of some 94 & 95 GMs retriving codes from cars made by the big 3 was no big deal.
you might find a reasonable deal on ebay that or paying for the diagnostic about $50 - 80 around here at independent shops.
if you are in the st. louis area pm me.
