There is no data port on your car.  For the MC code engine like the one
in your car, there are no user-programmable features like those that
of the later models.  In addition, the only way to dump ECU fault codes
is to access it by watching the diagnostic indicator lamp blink on the
dash.  Your ECU does not have permanent fault memory, so codes are lost
when you shut off the ignition.

See the http://www.sjmautotechnik.com site for info on how to initiate
the code dump.
