It will repeat each code 3 times THEN move on to the next code and repeat it 3 times. So if it came on and flashed ones, pause , flash two times that is the code 12. Watch it do that 3 times total. Then watch for a different set of flashes. If it flashes the 12 again then there are no codes. It is just starting over. So keep watching and counting.

Well that was code 12 in the video. And it did that 3 times then continued with code 12 the fourth time? If the car still runs fine then drive it till you can have a shop hook a scanner to it. Use your mineke coupon. If they scan it and dont find anything tell them it comes on while driving. They may try to figure it out to upsell. When they figure it out thats when you leave

They most likely would have a scanner that will do both obd1 and 2. A scanner is a must have in a shop. My Snap-on modis does both
