GM OBD/OBD2 CODES

Accessing GM OBD1 Trouble Codes

Turn ignition switch to OFF position
Locate Data Link Connector (DLC), see image below.
Jumper the A&B terminals(a paper clip or a jumper wire work ok)
Turn Ignition switch to ON position.
Count the ashes on the “CHECK ENGINE” or “SERVICE ENGINE” light.
FLASH, pause, FLASH, FLASH = code 12
NOTE: Some 94 & 95 models do not have the B terminal. In which case a scanner is
required.
NOTE: Some 94 & 95 models that DO have the A & B terminals still require a scanner.
All vehicles after 96 are OBDII,and require a scanner to access them.

12 Pin DLC
A – Ground F – TCC
B – Test Terminal G – Fuel Pump
C – Air Injection H – Brake Sense Speed Input
E – Serial Data M – Serial Data

Clearing Trouble Codes

Diagnostic trouble codes may be cleared by disconnecting the battery ground cable for
at least 20 seconds. Reconnect negative battery cable and recheck codes to con rm
the repair.

need to nd out what code ( b0100 & b0103 ) are

These refer to the front airbag system impact sensors, somewhere under the front
bumper cover. Probably not disconnected, because otherwise, you’d get a different DTC,
but maybe a loose or corroded connection. Any recent bodywork or front impact?

1992 Saturn SL1 SOHC Service Engine Soon light comes on after driving about a mile.
Connecting A & B on diagnostic socket the SES light ashes only Code 12, nothing else.
Everything else seems normal except sometimes speedo ickers up and down, mileage
recorder
appears to be running fast and stops at road speed above 40 mph.
