I'm not positive, but I think the RHD versions use the exhaust overheat lamp located on the center console. I believe the proceedure to pull the codes (small jump wire from "GRD to TEN" in the diagnostics box) is the same.

Maybe someone with a RHD car here can confirm?

the only things i have in the center console are switches for rear window defroster and foglights.



i have a Heat CAT Symbol in my cluster left side on the far right (the far left is Antilock then comes rear window defrost then airbag/na and then CAT Heat).



But when i bridge TEN and GND nothing happens when i switch igintion on. the CAT heat lamp comes on and stays.

Ok, like I said, I wasn't sure. I thought the RHD versions also had the exhaust overheat light on the console like LHD models.

i found the way it works :-)



for my efini it has worked, to connect a led (with resistor in front) between B+ and FEN. then bridge TEN and GND, turn on ignition and the LED spits/blinks out the codes https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif

Was your engine light/heat light constantly on? Or were you just curious if you had any codes? I have a 92 FD and I bridged them as you have explained. And the heat light just stayed on (the same as if the ignition was on but engine off) and nothing blinked. Does this mean I have no codes?



I just used bulk wire for the bridge.
