Default Extracting Fault Codes - Import

Hi folks

Mate has a "L reg" (think it's 94) Estate Import. I can't find a data link connector because I don't think it has one? The Engine light comes on after about 10mins driving and I need to know how to extract the faults from the ECU. Is there some "blink code" method?

Thanks in advance.

Default Parts - Where?

Hi Folks

The car produced 2 Faults:-

1. Oxygen Sensor - I assume this is the Lambda Senor?

2. Pressure Sensor/Pressure Exchange Solenoid Valve

Can anyone point me in the direction of a parts supplier?

Thanks

firstly reset the ecu and see if they reoccur.. they could be old and no longer valid.

the oxygen sensor if it reoccurs needs replacing..

the pressure sensor/pressure exchange solenoid valve error code could be for a few reasons.. firstly are you running a boost controller?
also check the pipe work on the inner drivers side wing. . all of the vac lines should plug in somewhere etc.. check none have come off..
