Just got the trany put back in, and the full hydro steering. I took it out for a test drive, and the check engine light came back on:confused:

Does anybody have a scanner I can borrow just to figure out what it is? The rig is in safe mode again!

I want to take it out for a test drive on Friday....

Please call me at 760-473-4141...cant check my emails right now.

actually, I believe AZ no longer does the code checking thing....ran into liability issues I think...

I will give them a call....do you guys think a tire store like Firestone or Discount tire might have one? They are close, and I could avoid trailering it there.

The unit we use..

you will save the amount of the cost of a OBDII .. the first time you have a to pay a dealer to scan or diagnose work on your 96nand later car. Invaluable tool IMO. It helps keep mechanics honest!
Today my kids "check engine light " came on his1999 Honda Civic and I got two O2 error codes. Honda Civics have two o2 sensors.. got to lookinig closer and see that the exhuast manifold is cracked in half. I figured 2 o2 sensors going bad at the same time is impossible. Cracked manifold was giving the readings.
I checked with all-data and there is a factory bulletin and find out the manifold is warrantied 8yrs/80,000 miles ( emission realated)
Freebie to us..His 3 year warranty was up. The OBD II picked up the errors right off. Dealer or garage could have made it very expensive on us had we not know in advance..

bennet...that is the exact one I have!!!!


I got it from Kragen. I couldn't wait for ebay delivery, and my computer was down.

It was 160 after tax and everything. It works pretty good, but is not nearly as detailed as your one for 4G's. I am getting a multiple cylinder misfire, and yours would tell me which cylinders...mine doesn't:confused:

Anyway, I need to figure it out. Soon.

yeah, the local checker store (cragen, csk) has the same thing for a good price...also they have the best price on the audiovox cruise control...
