#26065, "How do you check engine codes?"


          

I was just wondering how you guys check the engine codes, my check engine light came on for no apparent reason and I don't want to take it to a shop just so I can find out it is something little.

Thanks
Jon

when you find out what the code is, where do you start to go about fixing the problem, my code was evap purge solenoid/clogged purge line/vacuum line/evap emission canister clogged?

check vacuum hoses to the evap canister, and also the solenoid for it, maybe take it out and clean it. or buy a new solenoid
