#4 of 9 Codes from 95 LeSabre by gettinit Apr 21, 2008 (2:07 pm)
Is there any way to pull the codes from a 95 LeSabre without taking it to a dealer or mechanic? On my 94 Dakota you can turn the key on and off 3 times and the light will flash in sequence giving you the codes that are stored. Just wondering if there are similar tricks w/ this Buick? Maybe flick the lights, honk the horn, turn the key and rub my head and pat my stomach kind of deal.....

Replying to: gettinit (Apr 21, 2008 2:07 pm) I think 93 was the last year for the ADL 1 or whatever the right name is. You shorted two terminals on the connector below the steering wheel and it gave out codes. But after that the 94 was an odd year for connectors but Advance Auto, Autzone, and others should be able to read the codes for you. They do it free.   That may be the year where it requires a specific set of cables and some stores myay have them or not. Check with them!   Are you getting a light? If it's not flashing 90% chance it's a gas cap leak, or some other problem with the pollution controls related to the fuel system.

Replying to: imidazol97 (Apr 21, 2008 3:31 pm) I already tried the AutoZone type stores, they say that it has to be a '96 or newer. I Did have a 91 Taurus SHO that I jumped certain terminals and it gave the codes, any info anywhere on doing that w/ the LeSabre? Replies to this message: imidazol97 (Apr 23, 2008 4:36 am)

Replying to: natesalgado (Oct 08, 2008 8:51 pm) I can tell you whaat the code is for but unfortuantely I'm unable to tell what to do to repair it maybe someone else can give you technical help for the problem.   P0771 Shift Solenoid E Performance or Stuck Off   I was able to check the code on this site. http://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/   Hope that helps.
