joey b Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 My SES light on my 95 comes on from time to time. How do I retrieve the code? And NO the paperclip will not work, this is not OBD I. Quote
DaveFromColorado Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 Autozone scan's for free. --Dave. Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 yeah we are fucked unless we want to spend $$$$$ for the scan tool ourselves. Quote
fastbird232 Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 This blows. The nearest Autozone is 300 miles away, and the parts to build a code reader are still not worth the cost. Quote
Prospeeder Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 our autoshop has a OBD 1, 1.5, and 2 scanner for all kinds of models of car, lol even an ABS scanner for my PMIII! Ask around shops/dealer/stores and see if they will scan for how much Quote
cutty Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 our autoshop has a OBD 1, 1.5, and 2 scanner for all kinds of models of car, lol even an ABS scanner for my PMIII! Ask around shops/dealer/stores and see if they will scan for how much i know around here they charge labor of 1 hour for diagnosis. even thought all they do is scan for codes, but it might be different for everyone so i dunno.

5speedz34 Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 Has anyone noticed the scanner they use at autozone is the one they sell for what? $100? Quote
EviLette Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 *does a happy dance* My wonderful big brother/mechanic dude that I take all the shit to that I can't do myself has a scanner... Twenty bucks for a scan. Except for me. He taught me how to run the bitch so I can scan my own stuff.... Quote

95oldsVan Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 My local autozone will not scan OBD2 set ups anymore.I guess the story goes they got the heat from the EPA or someone in the west coast because many times people with OBD 1.5 or 2 would have their codes cleared before inspection time,by having someone from the store read and then clear the codes.In many places with inspections,and we dont even have inspections in my area anyways,stored DTC will result in failure of the test and you have to get it fixed first. Im not on the west coast but its where I heard the BS came from.My local advance auto will scan it with no problems.However I tell them not to clear the codes anyways if its stored.Az still will not do it.Scared beetches.We dont have inspections in this area as I mentioned. Be sure to call them ahead of time and ask them before driving somewhere and finding out they wont do it anymore. :? Quote
JakeMetz63 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 The Autozone on Cottonwood between Baldwin and Chicago doesnt scan obd1.5. Just incase you drive out there thinking they would. But if you do find one around us, let me know! Quote
