Just got back from autozone and using their tool to scan the CEL that just came on my Bone Stock Silverstone MY06 and it would not link. I noticed someone made mention of the possibility of pulling codes without the use of a scanner, can anyone enlighten me or was this just false? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

There is a way to jump a couple of wires and count the flashes of the CEL to retreive but I cant recall off-hand.

 

I know that I could do this on my 00 GSR by jumping two of the pins on the SCS connector and counting the CEL flashes. a long flash = 10 and a short flash = 1 iirc.

This is probabaly not worth mentioning but make sure your gas cap is on tight. Some cars will throw a CEL if the cas gap is left off or not on tight enough... completely shooting in the dark. Not sure if this applies to the S2K.

 

The civics/integras have a 4 pin port on the right side that you can jumper and then the car will falsh the code out for you via blinks of the check engine light.

I think you can do this to the S as well but not sure what plug to jumper. Prolly just a paper clip in the OBD2 port.
