"check engine" indicator on
Hi,
Lately my check engine indicator has been going off. It seems to go off at the end of a trip when I am idling at a stop. I do know that my exhaust is in need of replacement and I think it leaks up front.
Could this have something to do with it? Other than that it runs fine. ANy ideas?
Thanks
Tom

I must be dense, I can't find that - can you point me to the right one? Read through them all but not finding anything about the codes...

Some good OBDII info here

I believe these OBDI codes might help

Most likely....Yes. It is capable of saving the codes, sometimes "Other" conditions can flash the SES light, but no hard codes stored.

A scantool will pull history codes as well as current codes. Sometimes if there are too many to be able to diagnose the actual source, you can clear the codes, drive for a day or two, and come back with fresher codes.
