No way, on the new cars, that are computer controlled, you buy a "dignose"
computer that you plug into your "black box". Since the computer you got is
so cheap, you count the flashes and/or the beeps it produces and look up the
right code in a yellow page size book. Fun Fun Fun! I think car manufactures
and mechanics are in cahootes. (sp?) no longer can you work on modern
cars... its really a shame.
