Check engine light is on and I hooked up my scanner but it wont read the codes for some reason. Any one had this happen to them.

At school, our snap on scanner can read these codes...the mustangs from 94 and 95 are still obd 1. And the plug is by the passenger side shock tower.

You have your EEC-IV connector behind your pass side strut tower. All you have to do is jump the paper clip from the "SIG RTN" to the "Self-Test In"
Make sure you connect the paper clip while the car is completely off.
After you connect it, turn the key to KOEO (key on engine off) and your check engine light will flash the codes.
ie: flash-flash-flash-flash <pause> flash-flash-flash = 43
flash-flash <pause> flash = 21
Its pretty much like morse code..
Hope this helps.. [ December 17, 2012, 01:58 AM: Message edited by: SLOWSN95 ]
