i have a 95 2.2 s-10 i recently had the starter solenoid wire melt to the exhaust manifold and short the truck runs fine most of the time but ever time the clutch is pushed in the door buzzer comes on until you let off the check engine light come on some times and it will idle up high and loses power i put an acutron scanner on it but it would not link up any suggestions.

 

[devilman13xx]

scanner not linking is usually a sign of a fried ecu, itll still run but somehting is messed up in there

i just noticed you have a 95? if so it may not be odb2 compatible which will cause the scanner not to link. might need to find a obd1 scanner

 

[95slammed]

it has the obd2 port (16 pin) does obd1 have a similar plug I thought they were 12 pin plugs

 

[devilman13xx]

94 and 95 were the bastard years of the pbd system, some were fully compatible (95 cougars and such) while others were half and half systems and some were still obd1. 96 was the first mandated year to be obd2. keep looking around ,someone may know for sure if its full obd2 or not, if it is though then your ecu is prolly on its way out

 

[Chris0nllyn]

the 95 is definatly obd2

and if your ECU is fried your in luck man.....
