B) ....hmm...flash flash... :P

just thought i'd run a check out of interest and now have a quick question.

I have 4 positions on my ignition key, they are in order. Lock,Acc,On,Start

When i try the check in lock or acc i get no flashing lights, when it goes to start the light blinks constantly, what am i doing wrong ? lol

Hopefully i should only be in ACC position and there are no faults lol

your ignition should be set to the "on" position

if it blinks constantly or not at all

congratulations no faults present :)

great, thats a relief, thanks suprra :D

will just like a paper clip work? I tryed that and the engine light is just on always and never blinks. Also there is a lot of white gunk in the diag. box, would that have anything to do with it?

yep... ppl have used paper clips

that white gunk is used to keep the terminals in good health i believe :)

Great!
 

Thanks, supra girl. I have no idea what "t" and "e1" mean, but I will try to search for this tomorrow.

My hood shocks are "tired", so I hate to look under my hood coz I need one arm to keep it up, or a stick, which I never keep around =P

hehe good luck with ya codes

look in engine bay
locate fusebox
beside fusebox = another box with diagnostic written on it
inside diag box on lid you will see pin diagram
find T & E1 (also known as TE1 & E1) on the lid then match up with diag pins and put wire or paper clip into those to connect them together and walah... your cel will flash or do something ;)

Good stuff
