Using unknown4u's original topic and the wiring diagram in the repair manual I found that pin 15 is the one used for the check engine light. Pin 10 is the ground signal. However using a multimeter between these pins it seemed no signal is present of pin 15 when switching the ignition on. Again using the schematics I realised pin 15 switches to ground. I used a led and a resistor in series connected to pin 12 (which is 12V) and pin 15. Now when performing the blink test like on a US car the led shows the fault codes.

Hi all,
I've got a rough running issue at the moment and I started thinking about doing this so that I can see if there are any codes stored (UK car so no Check Engine light). Is there any reason why one couldn't hold the multimeter probes on the relevant pins and use the 'continuity test' beeper, instead of a lamp/LED, and count beeps rather than blinks?
