Dump the test light and buy an inexpensive DMM. Has this thing ever started/run?

Dale Pyles

I have a mm and yes it ran just fine then one day just wouldnt start all it does is crank

O2 sensor wires get chewed up by anything? Any rodent or water damage to any wire harness?

Dale Pyles

I checked the 02 sensors yesterday and they look good one was a little rusty but the wiring itself looks good followed them into the engine compartment

If a fuse is popped something is shorted. Are there any codes?

Dale Pyles

All the fuses i can find are good and as for codes no codes one the dash i havent yet rented a tester to hook up to it yet tho but no visable codes or engine lights

Does the check engine lamp illuminate when you turn the key to start?

Dale Pyles

Yes but then it goes off i can also hold the odometer button down and turn the key and let it run through everything and it shows no codes ..i actually just went ot to roll the windows up and noticed the gadges dont move like the temp ..battery...and oil dont move when i turn the key to roll the windows up

Can't run codes like that with OBDII you need an actual scanner.

Ill have to rent one tomorrow
