Quick OBD testing question

Post by Juans_93_MX3 »

I forgot how to do OBD testing since I havent done it in a long time.

I already ran TEN and GRN on the diagnostic box.

The CEL is flashing.
However, I looked on the FAQs and they dont mention how to read or add up the numbers. Like I understand that every long flash means 10. Every short flash means 01 and whenever it dont flash, it means 0.

But I seen the flashes, wrote them down, and they dont add up to any codes.
Someone help?
Here are the codes I get.

1 long flash
(blank light, pause)
<flash> <flash> (2 quick flashes)
(blank light, pause)
<flash> <flash> <flash> (3 quick flashes)

1 long flash
<flash> <flash> <flash> <flash> <flash> <flash> (6 quick flashes)
(blank light pause)
<flash> <flash> (2 quick flashes)
(blank light pause)
<flash> <flash> <flash> (3 quick flashes)

1 long flash
<flash> <flash> <flash> <flash> <flash> <flash> (6 quick flashes)
(blank light pause)
<flash> <flash> (2 quick flashes)
(blank light pause)
<flash> <flash> <flash> (3 quick flashes)
