Excuse me, I forgot the SN-95's have theirs externally mounted. Its on the radiator core support right?

Nope, it's over on the passanger-side frame rail under the airbox.

Re: Oh my GOD help me please

By caping off the EGR you will hurt performance. The EEC pulls spark if the EGR has poped a code.

I did not read the entire post, so forgive me if I missed something, but the MAF can be unplugged. This will only work if the car has the factory injectors and MAF, and so on. The EEC will go into limp mode with out the MAF. This can test the driveability during cold starts and so on. In theory this would test the MAF sensor it self. It could be reading colder for some reason.

Another concern would be the internal voltage regulator in the EEC. If it has gone out then all of the inputs will be screwed up and the car will run bad. This would also affect the ODBII connection.

Just food for thought

He could use a multi meter and check one of his 5 volt sensors to see what the input voltage is. If its right at 5V, probably okay. If its off, maybe you are right about the ECU.

Re: Oh my GOD help me please

I didn't think the 94-95 cars were OBD II. Did that not start in 96?

That is correct. I am suffering from your disease today.

Re: Oh my GOD help me please

If he is truly trying to connect a OBD II scanner to it, that would explain why it doesn't connect

OBD I and II had different connections shapes. The wrong reader should not connect at all.

Re: Oh my GOD help me please

I am finding that the OBD I applied to 95, 96+ is OBD II.

http://www.corral.net/forums/archive.../t-223354.html

Where is the connector that you are hooking your scanner to? Have you looked for other test connectors. Seems 95 guys have trouble with this. They say the 30 Autozone scanner will not work. I would try the OBD I scanner and see if you get better luck.

You probably have to use the OBD I port under the hood, driver side strut tower I think. You can then use a cheap Autozone scanner. I have been reading that maybe the V6's had OBD II and shared a cabin harness with the V8 OBD-I models.
