how to pull diagnostic codes from ecu?
keep getting a check engine light on my 00rs
anyone out there know how to get it into diagnostic mode to get the flashes on the check engine light? i did a search first and had no luck. also i went on to mrt's web site and their technical part said connect the green and black plugs under dash together (grn to grn,blk to blk) start car drive 1 minute,and it will flash the pulses. if it flashes steady half sec. pulses then there is no code stored. my car only has the grn plugs and every time i try to pull the code it flashes half sec. steady......... but yet my ck engine light comes on. any help would be great... thanks tony [This message has been edited by tluzziracing (edited November 09, 2000).]

Not sure if the Subarus have a way for them to "flash" whats wrong.
You may need to find someone with a OBD scan tool and have them pull the codes for you. Generally speaking, if its a new car, this should be covered by the dealer! |

Sounds like a dying O2 sensor to me... in any case, I'd take it back to the dealer!

try http://www.obd-2.com if you want to DIY.
That plug underneath will put it into a diagnostic mode (will retest everything), remember that OBD isn't mandated outside the USA, so I would imagine they use different ECU's with different diagnostics. |
