there is a blue 2 pin connector behind the radio/ashtray area
you may have to remove these interior parts to access it.

you will need to jump this connector somehow, with the ignition off of course.
i use a little piece of solid wire to jump it...
then turn the ignition on but do not start the car.

the MIL light should stay off until the gauges run their self test and then it should begin blinking your codes.

a long blink means a 10, and a short blink means 1

so a long flash and then a short one means 11...
and
2 long flashes and 3 short means 23...
get it?

separate codes are separated
by a noticeable pause, a 2 seconds i think
u should be able to get this far, and report what you find here
