can you pull ECU codes on Max's?

my sister has a '97 max, and the check engine light is on. figured it could be an o2 sensor, but i know there is like 3 of them or something. I was hoping i could pull the codes like how i do in my NX2000. Is there a website or something that has this listed, or does somone have the FSM for that year that can fax me copies of the pages on how to do this?

You need an OBD2 scanning tool...

yep you need a ODB 1 or 2, i know 3gen max's used ODB 1, but not sure about 4 gen...it should be same though...

Just access the ECM through the drivers side kick panel and retrieve the codes from there. Here is a helpful link.

I'm fairly confident that this is the info you seek.
