Jusmanak Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 check engine light on on my loyale 1992 AT sedan. Unable to locate the diagnostic port/plug. It's pre ODB2 obvioulsy, not sure where to start https://speedtest.vet. thanks for suggestions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 More qualified folks will chime in but as I recall Loyale series uses the flashing system. Is the light flashing long and then short flashes ? Example would be two long then three short = 23 Without looking at just from history I’d suggest it may be a thermo sensor or CO2 ... but I’m older and been off EA82’s for quite some time. Good luck.

el_freddo Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I can never remember which plugs they are - black or green. I think it’s green for EA and black for EJ, like I said, I can never remember. Remove the kick panel above the driver’s feet and have a pole around in the wiring. The plug colours are all that matter, from memory the wire colours in the plugs are different for the same plug colour Then ignition ON, engine not running, count the flashes as moosens said. Look up a chart in a gregroies manual or fsm, whatever you have available and go from there. Cheers Bennie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Ahh the plugs ! Thanks Bennie .... I’ll go back to getting old now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 The LED that flashes the code is visible through a hole in the ECU. . Bolted to the bottom of the steering column. Remove the plastic kick panel to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Oh, if the code is a currently triggered one, it will be flashing while the engine is running and the CEL is on. I rarely need to do anything with the connectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Correct me if I’m wrong please. But can you clear the codes by touching the battery leads ? while they are removed from the battery of course He’s going to want to know that next , yes ?

el_freddo Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Never heard that one @moosens. I’ve always just left the battery disconnected for a half hour or more. The overnight battery dance usually does the trick Cheers Bennie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Since this is another one of those accounts that just posts once with a strange link in the middle and never responds, I imagine he doesn't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well spotted Numbchux. I saw the link but didn’t think much of it as it seems relatively “normal”, just in a weird place. It’s the same for all of their posts on the forum, a whole three now.
