Well, I do everything the link says... When I turn my car on.. it goes through the fan, and the fuel pump, then the CEL blinks for a second. Then, there is a pause and it goes like this:
Blinke *pause* Blink *pause* Blink

Then it does the same pattern AGAIN. After that it goes into some codes I think I wrote them down correctly but some of them aren't even on the list, so obviously I misread something! Last nite I cleared the codes the way Scott said, that was to pull the connecter in the middle of the scan. I haven't been able to try the scan again. Later tonite, I will try and bring back some codes.

I guess my real question is, what does the two 111 codes mean?? right in a row.. and does anyone got 'tips' to reading these codes?

Thanks,

The system cycles / repeats the code listings.

111 = system checks ok

then it cycles in case you missed it the first time. :)

lol. See this is where I get confused. My CEL comes on every now and then. So why would I get a 111 code? I tried clearing them, maybe it didn't work.

But according to what you are saying, my only code is 111, and the rest are past codes/problems?

Thanks

Oh yea, I only did the KOEO not the KOER or whatever.


Maybe I should do the other test huh?

Thanks

If you wipe the codes, that's what you'll get. Make sure that the car's hot, run & codes again, especially AFTER your next CEL.

Yeah, KOER works differently than KOEO. :)
