    My 95 Pontiac Grand Prixs They are OBD I systems with ALDL connectors with only one pin. Standard code readers won't work. We need to know which scanners or readers work with these cars. But I only have one post, The B post There is no A post. My understanding is that it is an OBD 1.5 system with an ALDL connector. The standard paperclip trick will not work. How can I pull up codes.

    you have to buy a scanner that is compatible with OBD 1.5 or you drive to your local parts store where most of them will do it for free

    Advance auto dosen't do it anymore, pep boys didn't have the scanner and auto zone is to far away. Can I get a cheap code reader on line. Or an adapter for my OBD 2 Actron scanner.
