1988 Corona just dying

[Audi]

My mates ST170 Corona just died yesterday. Is there a way of rigging the diagnostics port so the engine check light will flash out what is wrong? I know you could do this on my old ST185 so hoping we could do the same here.

st170 ... usually carby?
If it is, you wont be able to do this

From memory of briefly seeing the engine in the dark the other day I don't think it was carby. It has a diagnostics port in the engine bay.

if it has a diagnostics plug, i would assume you would just bridge e1 and te1? and count the flashes on the CEL?
