I recently replaced the transmission and since putting it back together it has been one issue after another. Anyone know the procedure for getting the codes without a scanner? Running out of money, and taking it to a shop is out of the question! Please Help!

Unfortunately it is not. The only way to pull codes is to use a scanner. The other way to pull them stop in the mid to late 1990's when OBD 1 went away.

You can stop by most any parts store and they can pull codes for you free of charge.

If you have get the codes and need help figuring them out, just let us know. Thanks
