By the way, i was unable to clear the codes by using both wires in pin1 and pin2 of the black connector. For some reason it just wouldn't clear. I had to disconnect the battery for about 1hr for the codes to clear. Might want to add this to the How-To write ups.

I've successfully done it. You have to turn the key on/off for it to work I believe.

Did you start the car and then stop it with both wires in the connector? You need to do that, not just turn the key on and then off.

Check Here to see the How-To on reading the codes. I wrote up the instructions and added your pictures.

Yep, now that you mention it, i think i did start the car up, let it run for some time and then turned it off.

Anyways, the document looks good, and my pictures look good too How about adding the table that shows the explanation for each code into the doc ? People using the doc will not have to go hunting for that info in a separate file.

In case you are wondering, yes i'm an engineer, so i like my documentation to contain all relevant info
