LOL I went to Autozone again. They told me "It won't plug in because it's OBD - I, and all we can do is OBD -II." I said, I guarantee it's got OBD-II. I'll show you where the plug in is. So I did. The lady was surprised, but plugged it in. I don't think she knew how to use the darn thing because she said it didn't pull ANY codes. Can this be right?

just an idea and prob a stupid answer but ive got an 08 nitro auto/5spd and my check tranny light kept flashing... being its new i took it to the dealer they plugs it up pulled a code and all it was, was low fluid... witch was my first thoughts but again being new and warrantied i didnt touch it... also another thing the guy there said is that it may have been a bubble/air pocket in the coolant line and the sensor is being thrown off as to where there may not be fluid flowing threw... good luck...

Ok, I checked the fluid. It was a bit low, so I topped it off....Took it out for a drive, and it STILL started flashing.
I called Brian just a few minutes ago, and he and I are going to meet up this afternoon. Hopefully, he can give me a definate diagnostic of the problem.

Ok, What can I say....Brian is a stand up guy!
I met up with him at a shop over here in Tampa. He hooked up his computer to my "non-existant OBD-II pot on my wife's 94 vert.
It pulled up a transmission temperature sensor, and a 3-4 shift problem.
But, we cleared out the computer, and took it for a drive. The light stayed off.
So right now, it looks like the codes were simply old codes.
Thanks Brian! I own you a few beers. Just name the time.
If you want to, my fighters from my school are fgoing to meet at Winghouse on Hillsborough in a cpl weeks to watch UFC.
I still think that putting in a 302 and a carb would solve all the problems.
