Re: service engine codes

I would think most full service auto part stores can link diagnostic tester to ALDL and do for free.

But you don't need a parts store...You just need a paper clip, or short length of wire.

Autozone has a "key", but it is really just an uncut key, with 2 prongs. My local Autozones give them away all the time.

And code 12 is "All Clear, No Errors)

Look on..... Error Codes The codes are there.

Nope...Not on OBD1 systems they can't. All they can do is blink the lights & read too.

Only on later OBD systems does it read in words.

Correct, the GM "code module" they sell at checker is pretty much 2 connectors that plug into the ALDL and its serves the same function as a paper clip, causes the SES light to flash a series of codes.

The only exception where OBD reads in word is on a Tech1, for some ungodly reason my instructor has 5 of the ancient things.

Moral of the story, unless you want an archaic tool laying around, use a paper clip, stick it between the 2 terminals, watch the lights and count em up

OR YOU CAN USE YOUR DECODER RING


No need to fool around with paper clips.

They make hand held code readers.

Just plug it into your ALDL

It will show any active trouble codes, translate those numbers into words, read (independently from your gages) RPM, volts, temps, what your ECM is thinking and much more.

You can monitor performance while you’re driving and look at it real time or record it to look at it while stopped.

Not for OBD1.....All a consumer can get is the flashing codes. NO real-time data is displayed. Use the paper clip or "key".

Re: OR YOU CAN USE YOUR DECODER RING

This is prob the most common code reader for OBD1

Actron CP9001 GM OBD I Code Scanner $35 ??

But as stated the paper clip is more cost effective

Sure there is, the MPSI-9000 hand held scan tool I paid $75 for years ago reads out the codes in plain English. Such as:

33 MAP SENSOR HIGH

And provides real time sensor data. You can read/see items such as the engine RPM, vehicle speed, MAP value in voltage and KPa as the engine is running.

Not sure why you don't think that ODBI can do this. GM systems have been this way since the advent of CCC setups.
