This guy is busy and I appreciated his time.
I go back next week for him to trace the defect in the wiring.
He cleared the codes and for 260000KM, the old girl still turnes the tires!!!

Thanks again for your collective help and good humour!!!!

OBD2 cars don't have any sequence to flash the CEL. That's only with OBDI cars and earlier. With an OBD2 car you have to have a scan tool or a code reader hooked up to the car to see what the codes are.

So did the Monte get fixed? A bad cat?
