I did have this done by a friend a couple weeks ago
with a Snap On Scanner. It said the Electronic
Temperature Control Sensor (ETCS) was not working
correctly. I guess this is the sensor on the passanger
side of the T-Stat. I replaced it an it still has a
check engine light????

Unfortunately the key on-off method can only narrow
it down
so far. As you no doubt noticed when you ran the
trouble codes
on the DML page, 22 could be 2 things, and 37 could be
6
different things. As the next step I would recommend
narrowing
that down to find out exactly what the computer is
complaning
about. I know that many auto parts stores, such as
Autozone
will read your trouble codes for free, but
unfortunately I'm
not sure if they can only do OBD-II or if they have
the ability
to check the earlier vehicles. It would be worth
stopping
in or calling to check, anyway. Worst case scenario
would be
you would have to stop at a dealer (or an independent
garage with
the proper equipment) to have them read your codes.
Unless you
are on very good terms with them though, that's
probably going to
cost you some money. Anyway, that's what I recommend
- find
someone who can pull the exact trouble codes and
you'll be on
much better footing to decide what to do next.
