Help! How can I read my codes - 95 Camaro 5.7 LT1 with OBD2 port
Looking for some help with reading codes on vehicle listed in title. Build date 5/95. Been doing some research trying to find a scanner and coming up empty. SES light is on and want to read what codes are set. Light was on when we bought it and we fixed some issues and deleted some items.
Here's what we did to it.
Long tube headers
New O2 sensors
All Emissions stuff deleted
Traction control deleted
ABS deleted
Cold air intake
New distributor and water pump
Plugs and wires
Yes, dash is lit up like a Christmas tree. LOL
Fans where wired to a toggle switch. I hooked everything back up to factory harness. Fans turn on high as soon as I start the vehicle. Read where if SES is on it will trigger the computer to turn on fans. Can someone verify this?
Also, speedo isn't working so I would like to see if I'm getting a signal to the computer to rule out a bad speed sensor. Could be dash.
I know I need to get it tuned to turn all the emissions crap off. That will be done soon.
Is there any tool out there that will allow me to read the codes? Plus Read speed sensor and temp sensor?
Seems like this is the bastard year of the F-body LT1 world.

Any old Auto X-ray OBD-1 scanner. Add a 12 pin -> 16 pin adapter, or use jumper wires:

OR
Download free Scan9495 software, get a 16 pin cable. Not only can you pull codes, you can run a data log to help track down problems.

I can interpret the data log if you need help.
OR
Actron CP9185 combo OBD-1/OBD-2 scanner. Comes with correct 16 pin cable. Low as $74 on Amazon

Avoid Innova and Equus dual OBD-1/OBD-2 scanners. Their database for the OBD-1 LT1 codes is corrupt and returns a series of seven false codes on PCM's without codes.Last edited by Injuneer; 05-06-2017 at 08:20 PM.

Thanks for all the info.
Think I'll go with the Actron. I've seen they have some better options now. I have an Autel scanner now but it only does 96 and up OBD2. May sell it if I like the Actron. Looking at the CP9690. Comes with both cables. That way I can read my 93 also. I also have the Jet program but it's for 96 and up also.
