Take it for a test drive and note when/if the EML comes back on.

Mark is absolutely correct, it's a "not-quite-OBD" port on the 940s and will only work with a dedicated code reader - or a 12V LED (NOT a bulb! ) and a piece of wire but you need to know where to plug it in, which is the reset line etc - Lokis reader does the hard work bit of this in a conveniently fully built/tested package with an OBD plug on the end


No, the mechanic can't read it with his stuff either.
Thx. I'll do that to see if it stays off. I "know" what prompted it in the first place. I washed the engine bay because I wanted to slean it a bit before I removed the PCV to clean it. Water must have creeped into the plugs or distributor or whatever. Car never stopped, but was idling poorly afterwards (yesterday). Today it runs better but not quite there. I wanted to read the codes before starting to find out on my own what's wrong. But it won't be that easy I guess.
