I had a check engine light come on last night. Is there a way to check the codes to see why it came on? thanks.

I installed 91 cams about 3 weeks ago. nothing else since then. Is there a way to check the codes to see what it might be?

I don't know how to pull up the codes. That is what I am trying to find out how to do. Can anyone help?

welcome to NICO!

ok, i searched for u... www. 240sx. org in da FAQs section

click me!



click me 2!



don't forget to d/l the FSM! for more info

ps: i dunno if some later models in that year started using OBD II connectors (look around)

& if u find one, goto nearest autozone for free code scan if

u don't want to take passenger side kick panel off/ unbolt ECU/turn it around/ fiddle w/ the screws

OH PS: check / write down trouble code/ reset ECU/ then drive until light goes back on to verify that there's a real problem & not a ghost/electrical hiccup

Hey sorry to get off subject here, but how do those 91 cams work for you? Cause i have a set in my room waiting to be installed, is there any noticable difference? Do u like the cam swap compared to ur old setup?

I found out what the codes were: 65 and 34 Cleared them and they have not come back. As for the 91 cams. I can tell they are in there. I can feel more torque more now than before.
