How Do I Read 1995 Ford F150 Check Engine Codes

The Ford F-150s made in 1995 have check engine lights that come on when the computer system in the truck senses trouble. Sensors send information to the power train control of the truck when the information does not match up to what the trucks known limits are. The trucks computer generates a code and displays the check engine light. Each code refers to a specific issue that can be pinpointed once you have retrieved the code from the trucks onboard diagnostic system.

Instructions

1

Remove the cover off the diagnostic port of the Ford, located under the dashboard on the left-hand side.

2

Plug in the OBD scanner into the link of the diagnostic port. Code scanners can be found at your local auto-parts store. You can also ask a local auto-parts store if they can plug in a store-owned scanner for you to check the codes.

3

Run the self-test with the code scanner. Read the manufacturers instructions to find out how your particular scanner runs the self-test.

4

Write down the codes as the scanner reports them. There may be several codes--allow the scanner to run through the entire test.

5

Move through the codes as they appear, but do not delete them.

6

Remove the data cable and replace the cover over the port when complete.
