Re: Obd1 dowloadable software??

Should remain in volatile memory until the vehicle has completed a specific number of “drive cycles” without the fault recurring. You can find more info about each code and what happens in the factory service manual. If you don’t have a factory service manual, free download here:

If battery backup power to the PCM is lost, even for a few seconds, volatile memory will be lost. Don't disconnect a battery cable, or pull the “PCM BAT” fuse.

Noticed you indicated "GB" in your profile, indicating you are in Great Britain, and also that your IP address is from Spain. Do you actually own a 93-95 LT1? If so, we always like to see photos
