Default OBD-2 to OBD-1 / Service connector problem

I recently converted to OBD-1 and I'm throwing a code. I tried to jump the service connector, but it isn't working. Since everything in the car is OBD-2 except for the ecu will the service connector trick work? I need a way to pull this code. Any suggestions? TIA

It should work, unless there is a misswire in your conversion harness.

Yes you still have a service connector. Look above where your old ecu was mounted. It will be inside of lime green rubber boot. At least its lime green in my car.

Mine looks to be more of a Green Apple color.

Mine is blue, and it has 2 pins. Alls I did was connect the 2 pins with a saftey pin. And you CEL should blink.

Yes it should blink, but mine isn't. I hope its not a miswire in the harness. I payed $150 for that thing.
