Re: check engine codes
go under the glove box there is a green plug with 2 gray plugs, get the one with 2 wires in it and bridge them together and start counting the blinks

Re: check engine codes
ok codes are:
14 - iac valve
41 - o2 sensor
I'm thinking the o2 senser is making the iac valve code come up so it's just a bad sensor.
My question to everyone is how urgent is this to fix, and what risks am i taking by driving it.

Re: check engine codes
94 Teg should be the same, can anyone verify?
If the code is still there, I'm guessing you still have a problem. Unlike OBD2 ECUs (which store codes in memory), OBD1 ECUs will not display a code once it has been fixed. So you either have a problem with the O2 sensor, or you've damaged the ECU because of the water. It's also possible you still have some water somewhere. The ECU will display a fault if it detects too much current being output from it's current source for the O2 sensor, so you may still have a water-related problem.
Is the IACV code still there?
