try reading codes.Under the hood on the right side behind the right headlight area is 2 small boxes A&B put the pin connected to the A box cover in hole #A1, key on and press the button on the A box and hold for 1-3 secs. they light will flash. for example 2 flashes, pause, 3 flashes, pause, 2 flashes. press the button again and it will either flash the same code or a different one, do this till it flashes the first code again. At that point you have got all the stored codes.
