Hi:
It's done with the ignition key. At no point will you start the engine. With the key off, cycle it three times from off to the run position. On the 3rd time, leave it in the run position. All codes will be 2 digits. The light will flash one number then a slight pause then start the next number of the double digit number. Keep track of the blinks.

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.

Joe

Turn the key to the run position (forward) and back 2 times. Then leave it in run on the third click forward. So flick to run. Back. Run. Back. Run. Then leave it. Do this within 5 seconds. Get out your repair manual. It will have all the codes in it.
