What do the numbers mean on my check engine light (read more)?

ok so i have a 1995 mitubishi eclipse. and a lot of people know if u turn the car on and off three times the engin light blinks codes. well on the manual they have letters and numbers, but my mitsubish only has number codes. is there a list of just numbers? i havent tried this procces in a while so i would have to go back and check the numbers on my car.

Answer #1

. If the engine light is “blinking codes” rather than giving an alphanumeric display then I suspect that you have a 1994 (or even earlier) model, that you just obtained (or was originally registered) in 1995. . The earlier models (prior to 1995) apparently used a “Morse Code” like sequence of long and short flashing of a lamp, that conveyed a two digit code. The system worked as follows: . (a) multiple codes could be stored and displayed sequentially in ascending numerical order (b) each code was displayed by flashing one or more long flashes (representing the “tens”) followed by a pause then one or more short flashes (representing the “units); (c) another pause could be followed by further codes if multiple diagnostic issues had been detected. . e.g. ‌‾‾‾‌‌‾‾‾‌‌‾‌_‌‾‌_‌‾‌ (two long flashes, pause, three short flashes pause) ….. would represent code 23. . The meanings of the codes are listed in a manual called: . “ Mitsubishi Diagnostic Trouble Code Retrieval …… Eclipse 1990-1994 1.8 & 2.0L OBDI ….. “ . ….. ….. that can be downloaded as a .pdf file from: http://funadvice.com/r/1566vnm64b8 . However if you really do have a 1995 model, I quote the following: .

. ….. from http://funadvice.com/r/3n0mbv0jol . If your car only displays numerical codes, perhaps it is appropriate to ignore the “P” which is in any case unchanging therefore providing no useful information within the range of codes specified. . Hope the information provided proves useful, but sadly I am not familiar with the model you own, and can only go by what I have been able to Google.
. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable can give something better from practical experience. .
