>pulled codes today and got (pull up a chair)
So I did.

A1:Transmission Control Module
114 = Mode selector switch circuit malfunction.
124 = Short to ground in mode selector switch circuit.
134 = Incorrect load signal.
*Most likely your PNP or the micro switch has gone south. A DIY fix.

A2: Fuel System Control
1-1-1 = system normal.

A3: ABS
211 = Left front wheel sensor signal absent when moving off.
212 = Right front wheel sensor signal absent when moving off.
444= No supply to hydraulic unit valves.
*Most likely your ABS module is shot.
For '96-'97: http://home.earthlink.net/~vicrocha/

A6: Ignition
214 = RPM signal reversed or faulty (?). This may not be the correct description, as it was taken from the fuel control testing.
*Reset the code and see if it returns.

A7: Instrument
122 = Temperature sensor/interval too short.
132 = Engine speed sensor signal incorrect.

*Is your outside air temp gauge working? And does the coolant temp indicates at about 3 O'clock position? Reset the system and see if the same codes return.

>Please help or should i park on the next train track i see
They don't sound too bad, as long as the car is running fine.

Specify your model year. If '93-'95, we can help you reset the ECUs. If '96-'97, you would have to visit a local auto parts shop such as AutoZone, have them hook up an OBD-II scanner and retrieve codes & reset them. They officially cannot reset emissions-related codes but they can "fat-finger" if they are decent & helpful.

Wait to for other members to help you with the ignition system code.

Just found the code for the ignition:

214 = VSS (Vehicle Speed Signal?) intermittent.
