The check connector is located near the No. 2 relay box. Short terminals T and E1 of the check connector. (jump together)
2. Turn the ignition ON. do not start engine.
3. Read codes by the number of flashes of the "CHECK ENGINE" WARNING LIGHT.
4. System normal: blink every 0.25 seconds.
5. Malfuction Code: light will blink a number of times equal to the malfuction code.Between first digit and second digit, 1.5 sec
Between code and code 2.5 sec, between all malfuction codes 4.5 sec
6. The diagnostics code series will be repeated as long as the connector terminals T and E1 are jumped.
7. Codes are 2 digit numbers

Grand prix sputtering

First off, is a check engine lite on,if so do you know the codes?It does have a cam sensor,the cam sensor malfunction gives a code reading,in general fuel probs do not give a code this is done bymanually checking fuel press ect....the module does give specific codes as well...I have seen a cam sensor give the prob. you list, BUT TEST BEFORE YOU BUY,you can get your own codes from the a.l.d.l connector,under dash...take a coated jumper wire and push one end into the g .circuit ,the other into the b terminal and watch the lite flashig in the dash,,ie, 2 flashes...pause then 4 flashes is an example....wilf
