Well, I'm looking for a little advice.
The CEL came on a while back, and the dealer claimed the left O2 sensor was bad. I'd like to pull the code, but am having some trouble figuring out where to read the LED.
Questions.
1. On a 94 Q (the first one with a grill), the ECM still has the LED to give the codes, right?? I tried to read them without removing the module, but I can't see anything behind the module, even using a little dental mirror. (Wonder if you could see it at night in the garage?) Either the LED isnt bright enough, or its obscured somehow. And the OBD II systems didn't replace the LED's until later models, correct?
2. It sounds like I have to remove the ECM to be able to see the light. To do this, its necessary to remove the big connector bolted to the front?
Looks like four vertical phillips head screws hold the ECM in the metal wall bracket, but the room for a screwdriver is close to non-existent. Do I need one of those stubby phillips heads on a ratchet to remove the screws, or is there some other technique? ..... Please don't let it be that you have to remove the dash.
Thanks.
