My engine light just came on last nite on my 98 gsr. Is there some way to find out what is making it come on? How do you read what code it is ?

 

read this!....its at the very beginning of this forum btw!

 

YOU NEED TO REMOVE THE SERVICE CONNECTOR WHICH IS LOCATED UNDER THE PASSENDER SIDE DASH NEAR THE ECU. YOU NEED TO TAKE THE CONNECTOR AND JUMP IT WITH A PAPER CLIP OR ANY OTHER WIRE. ONCE YOU HAVE CONNECTED THE WIRE TO BOTH PINS ON THE CONNECTOR TURN YOU IGNITION KEY ON AND YOU WILL NOTICE THE ENGINE LIGHT BLINKING COUNT THE BLINKS. THESE BLINKS WILL REPEAT OVER AND OVER WITH A SHORT BREAK BETWEEEN EACH CODE. COUNT YOUR BLINKS AND COMPARE IT TO THE BIGINNING PART OF THIS FORUM WHICH HAS A SECTION ON CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODES. IF YOUR ARE CONFUSED WITH WHAT I'AM TRYING TO SAY, JUST BUY THE HAYES MANUEL ITS TELLS YOU EVERYTHING.
