This is a short video describing how to "flash" the codes out of your late model Dodge, Chrysler or Jeep. I could leave a lengthy list of what vehicles this works on, but it is easier to say this doesn't work on all models and the easiest way to find out is to try it.
-Enjoy!

Thanks for the tip.

I tried this on my beautiful '99 Chrysler LHS and it worked. Thanks for the tip.

@HackHunter1835 5 лет назад

Did it give you the Pxxxx codes or did it just flash the codes by way of flashing the check engine light?

@walterk1221 5 лет назад

@@HackHunter1835 pre-OBDII flashed the check engine/power limited light. Post-OBDII shows P-code in odometer.

i'm a Chrysler tech and this is still a feature on some 2015 Chrysler products like the Jeep Patriot/Compass/Wrangler, Caravan/Town&Country and any Chrysler products using the old style EVIC. It dosen't seem to work on new generation of instrument cluster or cars and truck equip with with a FOBIK (push to start ignition)

@1Builtcummins Год назад

What if the CEL is on but when I do the 3 on/off's, the screen says done but doesn't show ant codes? Even though the light is on.

@1ChiMom68 6 лет назад

I tried that. Didn't work. Should the car be in park?. Or neutral?. In park it did not work. 08 charger 3.5

@uptownsfinest1598 6 лет назад

How do I reset check engine light

@Ebooger 3 года назад

Pre-95, same procedure, count flashes of MIL. Last code will always be 5-5. Great feature, typical Chrysler "Extra Care in Engineering".

@73superglide62 8 лет назад

i didnot know that

@reavestasha 7 лет назад

Why does the engine light appear? What should I do after getting the code? (This is my first car so I'm sorry if this is a repetitive/ dumb) question.

@SouthMainAuto 7 лет назад

Have it checked out at a repair shop is the best option if you are unfamiliar with it

@rayray396 2 года назад

I have an 03 dakota. Did it your way got nothing. Then did it again. Just stuck in the key turned it to RUN but did not start it. The check engine light flashed 10 or 11 times but produced no code.

@strife01104 5 лет назад

No code showed up but DONE did. Also noticed I had a burnt out brake light but do not know if that would cause my dash lights to flicker

@MrDengo999 4 года назад

I am having the exact same symptoms. Did u ever fix it?

@mixmediaproductions 4 года назад

WHAT happens when you depress the trip mile button??

@georgiatrammell6617 6 лет назад

Please help my 03’ PT will not start, no codes, engine light flashes on and off 10 times, alternator,radiator,battery,timing all new, it want start

@klwthe3rd 5 лет назад

You'll probably have to use a scan tool to have the codes read. Obviously if the check engine light is flashing, you have trouble codes stored.

@jessfloyd8792 8 лет назад

😎! thx! now to find out what p1684 is..!

@SouthMainAuto 8 лет назад

+Jess Floyd that should not turn on the engine light. It only means the battery has been disconnected in the past 50 key cycles....

@Mr0143329 9 лет назад

Another cool dodge etc trick I believe some 2007 up to 2012 I believe double click and hold down the unlock button and your front windows will go down

@SouthMainAuto 9 лет назад

Mr0143329 Yes that works on a lot of late models depending on what trim level it is

@CCWSig 8 лет назад

+Mr0143329 Awww man you guys had me all excited. Doesn't appear to work on my 07 Ram

@Mr0143329 8 лет назад

CCWSig 07 is iffy some do some don't 2 clicks of the unlock hold down on the second

@CCWSig 8 лет назад

Yea that's a negative there ghost rider, tried every combination including spinning around counter clockwise while tapping the remote on my head. My dog thinks that is hilarious though.

How to get the code/s for Chrysler 1983-1995 vehicles: Within a period of 5 seconds, cycle the ignition key ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON. 1. Count the number of time the MIL (check engine lamp) on the instrument panel flashes on and off. The number of flashes represents the trouble code. There is a short pause between the flashes representing the 1st and 2nd digits of the code. Longer pauses are used to separate individual 2-digit trouble code. An example of a flashed DTC is as follows: -Lamp flashes 4 times, pauses, then flashes 6 more times. This denotes a DTC number 46. -Lamp flashes 5 times, pauses, then flashes 5 more times. This indicates a DTC number 55. DTC 55 will always be the last code to be displayed.

Good tiP my engine lite isnt on... but every now then, my engine lite turns on when im driving fast and crazy for a few hours.. i think the lite comes on jus to say CHILL THA FUK OUT YOUR ABUSING ME, and then i chill, and within a couple days the lite turns off, its been like this for 3 years of owning the car. ... and i never had an engine problem on my '06 R/T... But im curious, next time i see the lite, im gonna try the technique u shared... and again, thanks for sharing 😊

@ZePanthersGang 9 лет назад

Does it matter what year?

@SouthMainAuto 9 лет назад

It does actually and to be honest I don't know all the applications straight off the top of my head. I would just suggest trying it and if it works great, if not oh well.

@spooky4e 9 лет назад

South Main Auto Repair on my 1991 Dodge caravan (OBD1 codes) the same deal but the check engine light will flash and you can read the code by counting the flashes the slow flash is the first number and the speed flash is the second number and when its done it will start from the beginning

@mman454 9 лет назад

Just a note, this method won't display all codes. ie. Transmission or other manufacturer codes. Pretty much anything that your actron scanner cant pull, this trick wont work with, at least in my experience.

@73superglide62 8 лет назад

just , as we thought pcm was bad set all different heater codes all four senors

@TheVacuumWizard 4 года назад

My engine light flashes

@raymondperrault5821 5 лет назад

On my 2005 grand caravan, all i have to do is (with no keys in ignition) hold down the trip reset button until i see "SoF 6.3" (or something like that, its always SoF followed by some number), then let go of the button. Any codes will flash and all gauges will start to freak out and all idiot lights will flash. This will cure your speedometer problem if the needle ends up on the wrong side of the peg.

@mixmediaproductions 4 года назад

Once that happened to me. I took the Dash panel out, and replacing the panel again, it reset the panel. Battery had died, the cluster memory was set. New battery, and the panel reset (trip meter) bingo! Working again. 3 years 2 months later, car presents - no crank on a working starter. re-install new battery, now checking wires. Needs new turn switch at the column, and unplug battery. Will see. -- Fun to use the turn signal, and the dash resets while driving. No blinkers work outside right now either. :)

@norbertlazarus2484 4 года назад

Yeah nice- but- my engine light is on, i did the key thing and it says no problem- no code. What now?

@rcworks9762 5 лет назад

I had a car come in to my bay. The work order said read code only so it's a minimum ticket the customer does not want it diagnosed. I go to his truck with nothing more than pen and paper between jobs. I got in read and recorded the codes then cleared them. After that I turned in the work order to the office completed. I didn't know the customer was watching. He gets all hot about where was the scan tool. I tell him just to retrieve codes I don't need one. I did give the code definitions with the codes. He drives off the light returns and h's all mad... reading and clearing the codes does not fix the truck. He was looking for the minimum charge of half an hour... Not a repair. He comes to the realization his truck is not a 64 chevy.

@SelenaBartley Год назад

Can you please read these ?

@tonyverhey2632 2 года назад

This was supposed to be engine light flash codes..not odometer read out codes...it doesn't help me

@einsteincasino8539 5 лет назад

Just take it to O'Reilly's or Autozone and they'll check it out for you for FREE and Print out a report. And since you're there, they can provide an estimate for parts if they have/sell them.🙂
