yea that other guy talkin about the test light thing knows wut hes talkin about... you can use a test light, along with a paperclip to run the codes on your car, KOEO, KOER, and a cylinder balance test... it flashes in corespondance to numbers, there gonna be a 2 or 3 digit number based on the year of your car. once its done the KOEO start it, itll run the KOER, once thats done, give it a quick WOT and the balance test starts... again, all giving certain numbers of flashes to corespond to individual codes.... it works, and sure as hell beats spendin the money on an OBD1 scanner
