I would suggest getting the code pulled first though. That way, if/when it comes back, it may come back as a different but related code, but having both codes will help to determine the problem easier. 98.5 SVT 91 Escort GT (almost sold) 96 ATX Zetec (i brake to watch you swerve) FS: SVT rear sway bar WTB: Very cheap beater CEG Dragon Run - October 13-15

Should reset it without killing your programming on your radio :-) I am pretty sure it's 3 and 5. You should be able to find it here on a search... '97 Mercury Mystique GS (Not mine anymore...)
