kevinsUBARU Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Ever wonder why you never see any hotties when you drive? The V-Chip has been blocking your eyes from ever seeing anything greater than G rated content! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 They may have been talking about a set of plugs connected to run the factory diagnostics. Mechanicas sometimes use them to acess codes and digagnose the problems, but I think your car is OBDII and did away with that. Leaving diagnostic connectors together can make the car run cr*ppy, It often locks the timing in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
