| That link is exactly what I did with mine. You just have to be quick with picking up the flashes
My CEL that is on right now is an error code 45 - Fuel system too lean
To get the CEL to go OFF.....all you have to do is disconnect the negative side of the battery and tap the brakes 3 times. No need to wait and do all the fuse pulling stuff. | |

mine was solid, but mine was never jumped Its going to be solid before you stick it in  the paperclip that is. It only flashes while something is inserted into the harness to jump the system As soon as the item (paperclip) is removed, the CEL will remain on solid until the ECU is reset | |

| Who just has a spare scanner laying around. Probably about 2% of people lol But......about 99.9% of people would be able to find a paperclip  | |
