          Sorry, Patrick, I should have said they don't flash the new alpha-
          numeric codes. In the government's wisdom to standardize 
          diagnostics (which is part of OBD-II), they have done away with the 
          OBD-I flash codes. They could, but they don't.
          
          Sorry for the mis-information.
