Retrieving 'Check Engine' Codes
Posted by Pat McKenty (more from Pat McKenty) on Mon, 27 Sep 1999 09:28:22
All,

I own a 93 9000 CS non-turbo. I was cruising down the highway the other day
when
suddenly the engine lurched and the 'Check Engine' light came on. The
engine resumed
its operation and the light went out a few moments later. Yesterday I took
the car out and had
trouble keeping the idle above 5K on the tach. Again the 'Check Eninge'
light came on. I called my local dealer today and they said that some codes
may have been written. They want $75 to retrieve them and
interpret them. My question to you all is: Can I retrieve them myself??
And, assuming I am able to get them, how do I interpret them.

TIA

pat
