does anybody know how to
get the car to indicate what code there is
and where i can get the engine codes
thanks in advence

 

the question is :
how to get eng. codes out of the car without a scanner
where to get eng. codes ref.

 

Normally we all just go the an auto parts store with a OBDII scan tool and they print off the issue. I've used Auto Zone in the past...

 

got to autozone and they will pull the codes and give you a print out for free

 

yeah but is there a way to do it on my owne

 

No. The CEL (check engine light) comes on for many reasons and you have to have the right equipment to find out why it's on. Is there a reason that you wouldn't be able to take it to AutoZone? Like SLVROZ and Frank Boogie said, they'll check the code and give you a print out for FREE. Best advice...go to AutoZone (or a similar auto parts store) and have them read the fault codes and give you the print out. Then if you need to, come back to the forum and tell us what the fault was and maybe someone can help you figure out how to fix the problem. If by some chance your fault is for a bad catalytic converter and your car is less than 8 years old and under 80,000 miles, take it to a mechanic or dealer or whoever, and it should get fixed for free. Federal law mandates that the manufacturer is responsible for meeting emissions requirements up to 8 years or 80,000 miles so if you are less than that it would still be covered...just got mine replaced 4 months ago for free...YEAH ME!!! Good luck.

 

got my cat converter replaced as well about a month ago..for free..pretty common problem with these

aaand now i donnt have the car lol

but on topic..+1 to taking it to auto zone..unless you want to buy a scanner yourself and do it..

the one my mechanic uses cost about $8500..so its rly up to u

 

8.5 k would be used on R\A 09
not on that
cat. cov. new on my ride

 

i'm sorry but i'm really confused by the way you word your posts..

did you need any other questions answered or did you get it done?

 

i would spend that 8500$ on a bran new rallyart 2009
not on the scanner you were mentioning
the catalitic converter was replace by a new one , on my automobile

 

 

Nice translation.

EDIT: But seriously, does that mean your CEL went away and you no longer have problems becuase your "catalitic converter was replaced by a new one, on your automobile"? Or that your "catalytic converter was replaced by a new one, on your automobile" and that your CEL is on despite the new cat, thus still leaving you with an unsolved problem? Basically, is the check engine light still on or not?

 

i would chose your second option but in fact
the first one mention in your elaborate post
could be a positive anwser
wight i sugest you to be more explicite
for your demand it's positive the cell
AKA check engine light
is still in operation

 

Ok, I'm about to have to side with J Money cause I had to read your post three times, but I'm pretty sure what you're saying is that the CEL (Check Engine Light) is still on, despite the fact that the cat. converter has been replaced. Have you taken the car to an AutoZone or anything like that yet? You could also take it to a dealer to get the code readout but they will probably charge you $100 just to hook up the damn machine. AutoZone will do it FREE. If you still have the CEL, and haven't found out what the fault code is yet, go to AutoZone. Once you find out what the fault code is, come back to this forum and chances are you might be able to find your solution.

 

ok i'm going to the dealer next friday
so they will scan the automobile
i'll make them fix it
is that clear
