wel, what yr is your dsm?? u can do the key dance if 95-97, if not, go to autozone, and have em scan your codes for free.. once u do that, come back w/the codes, or hit up the main page for the list of codes, and what they mean...
we will be able to help u, just give us the information so we can ;-)

Turn your key on-off-on-off-on. Then your Check Engine Light will start blinking. By reading how many times it blinks, you can see what CEL code your throwing. Usually the first code wil be 12 and the last code will be 55. The light only blinks one digit at a time so you have to concatenate them together to get the 2-digit code 1,2,5,5 is 12 and 55. You can only do this if your car is 95-97.
