Default "Key trick"

I just did that keytrick, since I don't have a scanner or anything. I'll have to to autozone.

Anyways, I did that key trick and my check engine light kept blinking.

Does that mean I have a code(s) ?

Umm, it blinks because your are suppose to count them in a certain fashion. Sure would be nice to know what year your truck is. And if you are posting from a phone, ad the info to your profile, not just your sig.

Sorry, I was on my phone, so I couldn't get that much said.

I redid my signature.
I have a 97 dodge.

Which way am I supposed to count them?

12 Battery Disconnect Direct Battery input to PCM disconnected within last 50 ignition key-on cycles. Normal if battery has been disconnected, otherwise check battery power and ground connections.
I've disconnected the battery last week to clean terminals, that's about it.

If that's the only code, then as far as the PCM is concerned, everything is hunky dory.
