Check Engine Light Help
 

Hi Guys

was driving my 1995 impreza sti to work this morning when the CHECK ENGINE light came :x on but the car was still running fine its always left to warm up and cool down and its still idles fine but did read somewhere that it could be a sensor any suggestions

Hows you morse code?

Under the drivers side dash are two sets of connectors, a green set and a black set.

Its easier if you pop the lower half of the dash off. Once this id done, push the two black ones together, then turn the ignition on, but don't start it.

Grab a pen and some paper, it will take a few attempts.

A long flash is a ten, a short flash is a unit, ie two long flashes followed by two short flashes is code 22, if you miss it, turn it off and on again, or let it run through, it will sit there repeating the codes. If there's more than once stored, its probably easier to start it again.

Then just look up the codes.

nice one i will have to give this a go over the weekend after ive MOT and tax my other WRX

Now that's going to come in very handy just copied all the info to my phone cheers .

Has it not got a OBD port that you can read the fault codes?

OBD wasn't fitted to Scoobs until late 98.
Some MY97/98 have OBD ports, probably the MY98's. The earlier ones just have the Subaru Select Monitor connector, as per MY93-96.

I'll drop this link into the Tech section

By any chance is the port to the left of the fuse box as I found one when cleaning the inside of the car and where can you buy the code readers .

Scotty, I just put a lot of info here : http://www.southeastscoobies.co.uk/v...ad.php?t=18109

Looked at his name (bugeyedave) and not the details in his post.
