Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 3:53 amPosted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 3:57 amTo check the check engine light code, just use a paper clip 
Without checking the code, it's a shot in the dark and you're throwing $$$ at the car replacing parts until you guess the right sensor

Posted: Tue Jan 24, 2012 7:08 pmIts not the wires in the ECU, You are looking for the wires right above it, kinda on the right side of the glovebox. there are 2 plugs plugged into a green holder thing.
unplug the one that has 2 wires in it, one will be brown the other not sure on color, i forgot at the moment.
then jump it with a paper clip/ or what ever your using. I used a cotterpin cuz thats all I had.
then your check engine light and SRS light will blink, One long blink is 10, one short blink is 1.
more then one code will be displayed by a longer blink between then, count the flashes and then tell us what you get.

Posted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 4:54 amokay, its the blue plug with one tan one green wire if I am correct... connect these to things via the paper clip. open paper clip up, and insert into plug as use as a jumper. and then it should start flashing, but you have to make sure its in there or it wont do absolutly anything...

This is pretty much what you are doing right there, dont pay attention to the color wires he is useing, but its pretty much same exact thing but different wires.
