93 del Sol Si Manual. P30 ECU

Ran a paperclip in the test plug and I can't get the CEL to blink to tell me whats wrong. Any thoughts??

 

are you sure you have the right connector? 2 pin? right next to the ecu?make sure to turn the key on after you jump the connector with the paper clip.if it stays solid there are no codes

 

well the CEL is on normally. So when I jump the plug it still stays solid.

 

try a small piece of wire, some of the paper clips they make are made out of real shitty metal. If the cel stays solid with both the jumper connected and disconnected that means you have a hardware issue as in bad ECU connection.

First thing to do is reset the ecu and see if it happens again.

 

if you are jumping the 2 pin connector and the light is on solid then their is not a code stored in the ecu.

 

Make sure you did it correctly. You need to have the key "OFF", then insert a wire from one side of the plug to the other. Turn key to the "on" position.
