Reading codes using the pedal trick

Trying to read fault codes on my 1995 325i E36. Turn on key don't start engine, but my check engine doesn't flash. it stays on constantly. Tried various times.

Getting the "pedal trick" just right the first time can be frustrating. If you follow the instructions in the article it *should* work. Most people mess it up the first few times, but then then figure out what they were doing incorrectly. Also, it may be that non-US cars in 1995 might have had a slightly different system (not completely sure).

Thanks it is tricky, finally got it. it read no more codes. Now it starts and runs fine until it goes into closed loop. I checked the O2 sensor. it varies the signal as per repair manual .2-.8 volts. once it warms up.
