Check engine light on in your 1995-1999 Dodge/Plymouth/Chrysler Neon ? Read further to find out how to check why the light is on.
1. Cycle the ignition key ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON within 5 seconds.
2. Count the number of times the “check engine” lamp on the instrument panel flashes on and off. The number of flashes represents the code. There is a slight pause between the flashes representing the first and second digits of the code. Longer pauses separate individual codes. For example, flash-flash-flash [pause] flash-flash represents the code 32.
To cycle the ignition key ON means to turn it only as far as it takes to get the radio to come on. It does not mean to turn the
engine on.
