QUICK! Digifant 2 HELP!

On my Digi Golf, you take off the shift boot and there is a black connector
and a white connector. If you take two wires and connect the black connector
to the white connector, it will activate the OBD I system. This will only be
helpful if the check engine light came on.
Be sure NOT to connect the two terminals of the black or white connector
together. This will cause a short and you will be out a fuse. HTH!
