Neglect is a bad thing. How about during the day?

if you have any codes, it sure will. again, as a disclaimer... DO NOT START THE CAR!!! just put it in run position. You can also use the buttons (fuel, guages, etc, not sure which does what) to navigate through the different sections.

Well, you could end up sleeping in the car so you'll have plenty of time to check the codes And I think I will have another. Might be time for some pizza too.

Just a comment, may not apply to you. Two years ago, just after buying my 92, my Ride control light strated acting sporadically. Checked for codes and it turned out to be the right front. When I took the actuator off, the nut on top of the shock was loose and had worked its way up on the piston rod. The actuator was sitting too high and during the startup system where each actuator feeds back its status, I was getting an error code sporadically due to the actuator sitting marginally on the top of te shock. I tightened the top of the shock and replaced the actuator and haven't had a code in two years. I lucked out.
