hi juzzaman, if you enter error codes in the search facility above(search)you will find a shed load of pages on codes etc, codes are a pain but can be mastered to a certain degree ie if i can do it everyone and their dog can,in reality (the codes are there to help us) i never used to think like that but with some members help i have been converted, long live the codes but better off than on,good luck,cam.

The multimeter is fine for reading the codes but as you say there are limitations, with a digital one at least deleting the codes....

Cheers

Have you made sure you have read all the codes, read them several times to ensure that the the first code is not your only one...

Try leaving it in for six seconds after you have read all your codes, withdraw and wait....
