video on getting codes

[aaronesq]

here's a short clip showing the procedure for reading codes on the dash display. It's not the best quality - but I think it'll help newcomers to the site.

does not read the codes all of the time though. when i had the cel light the dash came up with no codes for me at times. If you have pending codes it will not pick that up either. The edge insight has had the best luck for me to read codes and pending codes.

Mattpopp - thanks for the clarification - you're right on. (Happened to me more than a few times) Anyway - At least it's a place to start for new owners and cuts down on repeat questions.

Did that myself and got the same result, so I took the truck to the dealer and had them read the code. I asked the dealer why I couldn't read it, they said that the key ignition code display only shows very basic codes.

The reason you dont see them all is they only show active codes not stored codes.
