Check the alternator belt. Make sure it's tight.


Try resetting the ECU by removing fuse #6 (15 amp) from the fuse box under the hood. Wait 30 seconds before putting it back in.

If the MIL (check engine light) comes back on, or the car goes back into limp mode, have it scanned and post the codes here.

Do you have a DMM that you can test connections with?

I recommend buying a Helm's manual and use the diagrams to do a bit of troubleshooting.

^^ Yeah, I doubt that anybody is gonna walk ya thru it as there are literally 12-15 pages of diagnostics procedures of the DLC circuit in the service manual.

EDIT: On second thought, check to make sure everything is plugged in and making good connections at the ECM/PCM first.
