I want to know how to read my error codes on my car without an obd reader. And also, I'm wanting to know why I can't get my car into the remote key fob learn mode. I'm supposed to turn my key on and off 8 times and then my doors should unlock and lock and then I press the button on the remote but I can turn my key 100 times and no unlock lock happens.
