How to Pull a Code on a 1993 Mustang

You can pull a trouble code from your 93 Ford Mustang right from your home garage using an OBD I code reader. The Mustang comes equipped with an on-board diagnostics computer that receives and stores trouble codes sent to it from various sensors positioned throughout the vehicle. When one of these sensors detects a malfunction, it sends an alphanumeric code to the computer. The computer, in turn, will illuminate a warning or service light on the instrument panel to alert you. You can purchase an OBD I code reader from any auto parts retailer.

Instructions

1

Locate the diagnostic port on the drivers side dash under the steering column. It is the same size and shape as the connector on the code reader. Plug the code reader into this port. Rotate it a bit to make it fit if necessary.

2

Put the key into the ignition and turn it to the "on" position but dont crank the engine. This should power on most code readers. If not, locate the "on/off" switch on the code reader and turn it "on."

3

Wait while the OBD I code reader retrieves all the trouble codes. Write them down on a piece of paper and look up their meanings in the code readers manual.

4

Turn off the code reader, if necessary, and unplug the reader from the port. Turn off the vehicle.
