Throwing a CEL Code
Hey Guys,
I was wondering if you can check engine codes without having a scanner. I had an 89 Firebird Formula 350 and I know you could paper clip it. What happened is that my truck just decided to throw a code. Checked all fluids and fuses. Everything looks good. No shales rattles or noises. Idels perfect too. Any suggestions? Thanks guys.

Re: Throwing a CEL Code
Okay cool. Yeah I guess with OBD1 cars like my old trans am, if I had my SES light come on, you could take a paper clip, put it in pin holes A and g? Or something, turn car to acc, and the SES light would flash in sequences of 2. Like it may flash 2 times then 4. You'd check your hayes manual and it'll tell you what a code 24 is. Pretty cool huh. I guess cars have come a long way since then lol.

Re: Throwing a CEL Code
Yeah it said Bank 2 Sensor 1. If someone knows which one that is, please let me know. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure bank 2 is going to be the right, or passengers, side. And sensor 1 means upstream, or before the catalytic convertor.

Re: Throwing a CEL Code
I looked in my Haynes manual, and it said downstream. Replaced it and the light went off. I'm happy!
