How can I read my own code

Is the check engine light on? Even if it is not you should have the codes read. Take it to auto parts store and get them to read the codes. It may have stored codes that will tell you what is wrong. Tell us the codes and we will try to help.

OBD Codes have nothing to do with telling you the
problem or the need to replace parts

Codes are used to diagnose the system with the fault,
that set the codes

Have to component test the entire vehicle system, to find a
problem

You were only told about the code

No one can tell you what the problems may be, until the vehicle
is properly tested to even find a problem

why not , tell
year car
model car
and engine type or size
then post the ACTUAL DTC error code, not the interpretation.
and symptoms.?

if you had read the FSM , all this would be moot , as it tells you this.
my wild guess, is the crank sensor is bad.
or 2nd guess. cam sensor.
or 3rd guess. is the spark read back signal is dead.

the actual code, tells you on all cars, which of the it is.

a Honda Saturn. and zero post, i wonder why.
the Saturn (and honda) FSM both tell you how to diagnose all DTCS.
why not read that.
and btw, the codes never tell you what parts is bad but rather ,they only tell you which tests fails.
the tech will test the sensor and see that its good, (say) then finds the connector bad, saving $200 in useless parts.
or more.
RTM , READ the FSM, and read what the test does.
and get the freeze frame and see what is going on.

its telling you something is wrong

i think that it is a code in the tcm otherwise transmission problem such as speed sen or input out sensors for trans or just to tell you to check transmission codes for this your scanner cant read you might have to go to dealer to read trans codes

You have an error code activated. You can buy a code read which will also turn off the code or take it to a repair shop that will read the code and tell you what needs to be done to fix it. Most shops charge to read the code I belive that AMMCO advertises that they will read the code for free. Most dealers will chare about $30 to $50 to read the code. Something as simple as a bad gas cap could cause the light to come on.

your gonna need a book to know what codes mean. or an autozone can read the codes for free. and tell u what to fix

Who read your codes should have told you what they mean ,IDM codes and boost calibration high,now next time you pay autoxone to read codes dont pay them unless they tell you what they are ,Also consider yourself lucky that you can read a code ,try doing it with a europeon built car for the europeon market ,THEY ARE ALL ENCRYPTED

There are engine codes for alot of diffedent problems. Go to Autozone and have the code read. They will tell you what it means. Post your results, please.
