You say it's a '95, but the OBDI codes are 2 digits, so how did you come up with that particular code?

i counted the flashes and there was a pause between the flashes. of course the 5 5 followed the numbers i just gave. I know i am a little slow, but we counted this about 20 different times.
Haha

Well, 32 is bad EGR valve, but there is no 94. In fact there is no code at all with a 9 in it.

Well, when you count the light flashes, there are short pauses between digit 1 and 2 for each code, and then a long pause between codes. Are you 100% sure you counted them right? Any chance you could get a video of the light flashing and post it?

You can always go to autozone or most auto parts stores and they can read it for free with a scanner. Or do autozones free rent a tool. I bought one from autozone that does all makes of obd1 and obd2 which is universal. For $150 from autozone. It is worth it for me.
