Hi there can anyone help I put the paper clip on te1 and e1 and turn the key to the on position and no blinking or anything. Light just stays on. My engine light has been on for 2 days now. Car runs fine by the way.
Thx

ok so you have a CEL on but when you put the clip in it does not flash any codes? hhmmmm i dont know whats going on here

After I put in the clip I get in the car turn the ignition to on and the cel is just on still no flashing at all. I am following the guide that is a stickie.
Any Ideas?

sounds like you are doing it right, maybe its not storing the codes???

if you have a 96+, you cant read the codes with a paper clip, you need an obdII reader.

It says he has a '97 on his profile so he will need the reader.

Thanks for the help I will be able to get my code soon.


p0420 = weak catalytic converter but it has not come back on .

Dang, i should have caught that. yeah you need an ODB-II reader.
