Can you check for codes??
My check engine light came on, and I reset it, but it came back on after a short while. Is there a way to check for codes using the check engine light, or such? If I can figure out why, I can fix it! Thanks in advance.

Instructions on how to find out the check engine light code.
Underneath your glove compartment there is a blue connector. It is towards the passenger side of the car. After you find it it must be unconnected. Once it is disconnected get a paper clip and connect one end of the paper in one hole and the other end in the other hole. Next put your key in the ignition and turn it to II (not all the way on) while the paper clip is in both holes of the blue connector. The check engine light will turn off for a second and then blink the engine code for the problem. Long flashes are 10 and short flashes are ones. Ex. you see 6 long flashes and 5 short flashes= engine code 65. If you don't see it the first time don't worry it will repeat over and over until the car is turned off. Once you get the code turn the car off. Connect the blue connector to its proper place. Go to your compter and go to niedejb's home page and look up the engine code. Once you find out your code post it up and we might be able to tell you how to fix it. Good luck
