How to: Retrieve CEL, ATTS, ABS, and 4WS Codes


Step 1: Get into the passenger side of your car. Locate the OBD-II panel cover and just pull it off.

Step 2: Locate and remove the blue 2-pin connector.

Step 3: Locate and insert your jumper. Some people use paperclips or twisty-ties. I prefer a standard forked ground connector. It doesn't flex and is a perfect fit.

Step 4: Put your key in the ignition and turn forward to the second or "ON" setting (no photo needed, I hope).

Step 5: Count the pretty lights. It's basically like Morse code, with short and long durations. Long durations come first, followed by shorts. Long duration = 10 each, short duration = 1 each. Example: Long Long Long Long Short Short Short = 43. There is about a half second pause between each same duration and about a full second pause before switching to a different duration. Example: Code 22 = Long (half second pause), Long (full second pause), Short (half second pause), Short. If there is more than one code stored for a particular system, there will be a 2-3 second pause between the codes.

Now that you have your codes pulled, it's time to fix them. For CEL DTCs, go to Step 6. For ATTS DTCs, go to Step 9. For ABS DTCs, go to Step 12. For 4WS DTCs, go to Step 15.

Step 6: Download the Helms manual from
here

Step 7: Turn to Chapter 11, Pages 46-50 in the Helms. Find the code in the charts and turn to the page indicated. Begin troubleshooting.

Step 8: To clear CEL DTCs, follow these steps.

Pop the hood and go to the Under-hood Fuse Box.

Locate and remove the Clock/Radio fuse. It's the middle fuse on the top row (the only 7.5A fuse on the top row). Removing for 5 seconds is sufficient.

Put everything back together.

Step 9: Download the Helm's manual from
here

Step 10: Turn to Chapter 15, Page 16. Find the code in the charts and turn to the page indicated. Begin troubleshooting.

Step 11: Follow these steps to clear ATTS DTCs.

Step 12: Download the Helm's manual from
here

Step 13: Turn to Chapter 19, Page 41. Find the code in the charts and turn to the page indicated. Begin troubleshooting.

Step 14: Follow these steps to clear ABS DTCs.

Step 15: Download the Helms manual from
here. This is the 4th Gen (1992-1996) non-USDM manual. The 4WS system is the same.

Step 16: Turn to Chapter 17, Page 38. Find the code in the charts and turn to the page indicated. Begin troubleshooting.

Step 17: Follow these steps to clear 4WS DTCs.
