Reading the codes... 400

Hi all.

I apologise for this post as I am sure that is has been covered before, but sadly I cant find it.

I was wandering how do you read the fault codes in the 440GL 1.8 Single point injection...

I have found the little box with the wire and the little red LED... just wandering what to do to pull a code.

Thanks in advance - and sorry if im asking you to repeat yourselves..

Goodwill!

Ziggy.

Insert plug of short lead into hole labeled '2'
Turn on ignition, but do not start car
Press button on diag box next to LED about 0.5 seconds
Write down blink-sequence

Codes are 3 digit blink sequences with a longer pause between each digit.

So: 2.1.2 would be blink-blink-pause-blink-pause-blink-blink

If it returns 1.1.1 then all is OK and no error codes were logged.

Bye, Arno.
