you have to tell us what code you are throwing...without knowing that, none of us can help you. As for the brake light being on...you have a bulb out...find out which one it is. I had it on for a while...1 on my 3 brake light bulbs was busted...

for the CEL light

and as far as the brake light, check your brake fluid.

Or, go to AutoZone and tell them your check engine light is on

I went to autozone once, and they said they could only check OBD2, and not OBD1...

it depends on whether or not it's his red brake light or his ABS light. i know in my 89, my brake light (the same one that illuminates when the e-brake is pulled) turns on when i have low brake fluid. topping it off makes it go away.

however 4th gens might be a tad different, but checking it anyway to make sure won't hurt

its an S model, so no abs for HER, yeah...she said she was a chick in another thread..

so i think she is speaking of the red brake light, which for me, meant a broken bulb/burnt bulb.

and you're right, checking it wont hurt a thing.
