      my check engine light always comes on but theres nothing wrong with the car, unless the small exhaust leak is causing it, but even without that fact it has come on for the 22 years my dad has owned it so i think it needs to be cleared

        Unhook the battery for 5 mins to clear the code. Like Larry said...a paperclip to jumper pins A and B on the OBD connector works to flash the light in sequences so you can count them to find the codes.

          do you know where i can get a list of these codes that i will be needing, or how does it work, you put the clip in it flashes and gives you the variables of the code and then its cleared?

            www.thirdgen.org could be your best friend for issues like this and for great information on how to do it.

              darren: i have read that on thirdgen, since im a member i though it would be good to use my resources, but i only understood half of what the site was noting. anyways i got a few things rewired and it doesnt seem to turn on so i guess my problem for the check engine light is non existant any longer. although now my brakes light will come on so ill have to diagnose that tomorrow. thanks for the help anyways
