Hey guys:

The check engine light was staying on in my 1994 Mazda B3000 (3.0 V6) and it failed on the HC and NOx portion of the emissions.

Niether I nor an auto parts guy are able to find a module for connecting a diagnostic tool to get the codes. I have been scouring the internet but I cannot find a way to get the "blink codes" from the dash panel. Would anyone happen to know how to do this?

FYI: I replaced both O2 sensors, the egr valve, the pcv valve, a bad vaccum line that goes from the PCV to the charcoal canister, changed the oil and filter. The truck failed a second time with slightly higher numbers. I wonder if I got the left side and right side O2 sensors mixed up. The part description did not specify which was which. Maybe the valve seats are worn?

You need to find the check connector and jumper TEN to GND to flash the codes
