Default Help

Hi my friends . I would like to thank everyone for the help you all have given to me. As before My 1994 Vette will not start, I tryed pulling the codes but the computer would not send any info to the tester ( this tester is my friends and he is the hear man at a ford dealedship the tester is a $ 6000.00 tester and he knowes's how to use it ). It was pluged in corectly but it would not talk to the tester at all. Is there anyone out there that could tell me why? I can't get the codes I need to tell me for sure that it is a bad opti or not . Still will not start, I don't want to take all that stuff off without knowing that is the problem but now I can't get the obd 1 output to comunicate with the tester. Any ideas? This thing is driveing me nuts. I thank you all.
Health, Love and Happiness always.
Your friend, Teddy.

If you are really asking about a 1994, that is a C4. This is C6 Tech. You need to re-post in the C4 Tech Forum.

If you have a 94 C4,,, it is OBD1 and does not need the GM Tech 2. It uses the TECH1 BUT,,,,,,, You can read your own DTCs

All you need to do is use a paper clip and short PINS "A" & "B" together in the ALDL connector under the drivers dash

The DTCS will display in the CHECK ENGINE LIGHT as a set of FLASHES

Google "Reading GM OBD1 Codes" and you will be able to see some U tube demostrations on how to read the DTCs

Here is the complete list of OBD1 DTCs
