  • ~Is my PCM bad?~

    I decided to check to see if I could pull some codes. I know I had a good connection, jumped A+B terminals, it is the 12 pin so I know its the right procedure. And I couldnt even get a code 12! It did nothing, the SES just stayed on!

    This is in reference to this thread: http://forum.camarov6.com/showthread.php?t=94014

    You have to use a OBD-I code reader.

      Thats not what Haynes says... It says jump terminals a and b and it should flash when ign is turned to on. Just like any other OBD1. Just like my 91 Camaro Ive done many times...

            Because Haynes maunals are notorious for making mistakes regarding our cars, as well as offering ambibuous information on very detailed procedures.

            Get yourself a Chiltons.
