AutoZone or most any other major parts stores will read them for free. Just stop in and ask.

To Enter Diagnostic Mode

The "diagnostic display" mode is entered with the following procedure:

1) Turn on the ignition but don't start the engine.

2) Press the "reset" button to turn off any warning messages

3) Press and hold "options"

4) While holding "options", press "fuel" four times within a 10-second period.
When first engaged the on-board diagnostics go into an "automatic" mode which shows all parameters:

PCM-TCS-RTD-BCM-IPC-radio-HVAC-LDCM-RDCM-SCM-RFA. If there are no problems, you will see "no more codes" on the ICP

display.

The computer will show two kinds of codes, "current" and "history," designated "C" or "H". A current code indicates a

malfunction is present in the system whose module is displaying data. A history code indicates a past problem.


When the screen displays "manual diagnostics," select the desired module by pressing the "options" button to go

forward or the "trip" button to go back. Press "gages" to go forward or "fuel" to go back.


To exit the diagnostic mode at any time, press "E/M". If you want to erase or "clear" codes, press "reset."
