    Yeah I had read the post about jumping the connectors but I'm not sure if I understand it - how can you jump those two pins and still plug in the code reader?

    John, a code reader will not read or erase TOD, ABS, or airbag fault codes. Just follow the instructions to read and erase the code with a jumper wire. It's real easy to do. Even if the light goes away on it's own, it's important to read and erase the code that got stored. That way if the light comes back in the future, you won't have old codes to confuse you on the current problem.

    I think I figured it out after viewing your vids - so the light flashes in two groups for first and second digits. That's not apparent in reading the service manual instructions. Thanks for the info Mark!
