Well, my advice would be to count the number of flashes. That's what the hell it's supposed to do. Does it run okay?

If it's really giving you a proper code, each long flash counts for 10's and each short flash accounts for a 1.
So say i had, 3 long flashes, and 4 short ones, that would be a 34.

just to add on be a little more specific with the increments for long and short...
SHORT flashes are single digits (1/2 second)
LONG flashes are 10's (1 second)
hope this helps

That's a long time to count flashes, I'd have given up after 10.
Try a differen't ecu if you have one laying around. You might have a bad ecu or missed something.
