So just now when i started my car to go to work i have a check engine light flashing. It’ll flash 6 times then pause, then 6 and pause over and over. It’s a 95 eg sedan d16 vtec. How does one pull codes from these cars? It’s sounding and running fine…
65 year: 96-98 96-98 NA 96-98 Oxygen Sensor Heater (Secondary)
67 year: 96-98 96-98 NA 96-98 Catalyst system Efficiency Below Threshold
no 66?
but the 60’s range is O2’s and cats

is it just flashing on it’s own? usually the flashing happens when your are pulling the code ie: jumping the plug near the ecu.
I took it as he was doing that already
if you are not you need to pull down the lil thing holding 2 plugs one will have 3 wires other will have 2 wires … the one with 2 wires put a wire in them to “jump” them then start car and check light
there is pic on the link if you need them

Do you have a CEL?
This is how you check your own cel (Check Engine Light), at home, without driving to a mechanic, auto store, dealer. Numbers for the light are listed farther below.
5 Easy to Follow Steps:
Get a CEL
On the passener side, remove the kick panel at the floor.
Locate the jumper plug (Civic 92-95 is grey, 96-00 its blue). Its a 2 pin plug.
For EK, there is 1 brown wire and 1 black wire
For EG, there is 1 tan wire and 1 green
WITH THE CAR OFF, insert either a 2pin connector clip, or loop a thin enough piece of wire into both holes on the connector.
Back in the driver’s seat, turn the key to the ‘ON’ position. The CEL light will come on at startup, like normal, but it will then begin to flash.
-----CEL # List-----#1 #2 #2
Now, if you take your OBD2 car (with cel) to a place that has a scanning tool (IE - AutoZone) the #'s will be different -> 5 digit codes.Here's a list of OBD2 codes. (If anyone cares.) - Honda-Tech - Honda Forum Discussion
Now that you have the corresponding # for your light, you can begin to go about fixing it. How you do that, is your call, but there are lots of members here that can probably assist you with any issue.
Happy fixing

i totally get what you’re saying. it sounded like he was jumping the plug to get the code, then he went on to ask how to pull the code. that’s what was confusing me. hence my question/comment.
yea your right … I thought it just stays on … not flashing
exactly, it shouldn’t flash unless you are pulling the code. however, you gave him a good deal of relevant and useful information. that is more than i can say for myself.
maybe the previous owner left a jumper in the port :shrug:
lol that would be fun to fuck with someone … like have a paper clip on you at all times just for that
