So after having my car for just over 2 years...and for the first time...the FIRST TIME...my check engine light went on
 Have no clue of what happened either. I was driving down a side road, takin her easy and it went off. Im gonna hook her up to a scanner tomorrow and see what the code is/how to clear it. Hope its nothing thats gonna cost me $. Ive already spent enough $ on my car in the last month.

all you need to check the code is a paper clip. just connect the TE1 and E1 connecters in the diagnostics box (make sure the key is in the ON position) and read the code as above ^
my guess is it's the EGR if it's going on and off repeatedly. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
