I did have a few faults that we though were fixed. The codes kept coming back, used Durametric tool from friends shop. It kept coming back after reset until I decided to check the battery. Used a tester/charger that kept telling me I had 35% of the battery charge.

Did some research and it was noted that my car needed the 94R battery. "Wrenches" thought there may have been an issue with voltages and wanted to trace it out. I replaced the battery before they started and cleared the codes. They have NOT come back. It seems the 94R is what's required for the Beepsters of all stripes which is also listed as an optional battery in many listings. Earlier in this thread I did list some addional sites to check out.
