Getting the Wheeling Fever
Can someone post instructions for reading trouble codes? My check engine light comes on after the motor warms up, but only at idle, if I barely tap the throttle with my foot it goes away. I've checked and adjusted the TPS several times, and it still does it. Maybe its something else?

Easy enough, found the plug, hooked up, turned on the key and not anything happened. I'm using a bulb indicator, instead of a voltmeter, same theory, light blinks when code is sent. Anyway....nothing, any ideas?

Make sure the key is on the "on" position and not "accessory". If connected correctly, the computer will always spit out something. If it's normal, you'll just see a continually blinking light. Check your connection again.
