FERM and any other Jeep guys......

Go with the ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON. Make sure you go to run and then back to off, and do not start it. If you bump it to start you have to start over. But the cycling needs to be smooth, if you have any breaks in it it will not go into self diag. Just go through them smooth and steady and see if that works. If not then yours may not be capable of it. Not all the 99's will do it. AUTOZONE is still free, or you can pick up a cheap OBDII code reader at WAL-MART for under $50.

THANKS

Chrysler Code Retrieval

Accessing Trouble Codes
96 & later are OBD2 & requires an OBD2 scanner.

Code retrieval can be accessed by the ignition key or by a diagnostic readout box(DRB).To obtain the codes using the key method,set the park brake,and put the vehicle in Park/neutral.
Some 95 and later OBDII vehicles, you may be able to retrieve OBDII codes with this procedure, if equipped with digital dash.

• Turn the ignition key ON,OFF,ON,OFF,and finally ON again(ENGINE NOT RUNNING)
• The codes will start to flash on the POWER LOSS or CHECK ENGINE light.
• FLASH,pause,FLASH,FLASH=code 12

Clearing Trouble Codes

Diagnostic trouble codes may be cleared by disconnecting the battery ground cable for at least 20 seconds.
OBD2 vehicles require a scanner to clear the trouble codes.

thanks Skools, but the key thing did not work again. I have disconnected the battery and I will let it sit for a few hours. We will see it that clears it.


Missed you around here buddy...glad you are back

Yep, like the instuctions SKOOLS posted, it don't work on all of em unfortunately. I know when I was at the dealer it would get frustrating waiting on the DRBIII to read codes, but the key trick didn't work but half the time(if you were lucky).

[C YENSEN]

well i just reconnected the battery after an hour and the light is OFFand it better stay that way
