The diagnostic trouble codes on all models can be extracted from the Powertrain

Control Module (PCM) using a SCAN tool.

On 1991 through 1995 models only, the PCM can be placed in the diagnostic mode a
nd the trouble codes
flashed on the Check Engine light.
The PCM will illuminate the CHECK ENGINE light on the dash if it recognizes a fa
ult in the system. The light will remain
lit until the problem is repaired and the code cleared or the PCM does not detec
t any malfunction for several consecutive
drive cycles.
To extract the diagnostic trouble codes, perform the following steps:
Without starting the engine, turn the ignition key ON, OFF, ON, OFF and ON.
The CHECK ENGINE light on the dash will begin to flash.
If any trouble codes are stored in the PCM memory, the CHECK ENGINE light will f
lash the number of the first digit,
pause and flash the number of the second digit.
For example, Code 23, air temperature sensor circuit would be indicated by two f
lashes, pause three flashes.
A long pause will appear between individual codes if more than one code is prese
nt. Carefully observe the flashes
and record the exact code number(s) onto paper. After the stored codes have been
indicated (or if everything in the
self diagnosis system is functioning properly), the CHECK ENGINE light will flas
h a Code 55.
If the ignition key is turned OFF during the code extraction process and possibl
y turned back ON, the self diagnostic
system will automatically invalidate the procedure and must be restarted.

* - Check engine lamp will not illuminate at all times if this code was recorded
. Cycle ignition key as described
and observe code flashed by check engine lamp.
** - Check engine lamp will illuminate during engine operation if this code was
recorded.
