Ok try the link below - your chart is the first one - click on the picture to enlarge it.

Trouble codes

Oh and code 12 always means (or it used to mean) no distributor signal reference (IIRC) - and for cars that have a distributor that was correct because with the car not running and just the key in the on position there was no distributor signal reference.

for our cars, there is no distributor, just coil packs. But if you don't get a code 12, you should worry, then you just may have a bad ecm.

No you wont see the number 12, just your check engine light actually flashing once then twice, and yes it will repeat three times before moving on to the next code.

Ok, here is the book definition of code 12 for our engines:

This code will flash whenever the diagnosic terminal is grounded with the ignition turned on and the engine not running. If additional trouble codes are stored in the ECM they will appear after this code has flashed three times.
