Check engine codes on a JDM FD?

There is no MIL/CEL in the dash. You can connect an led to the B+ and FEN terminals in the diagnostic connector under the hood to view the codes.
Connect a 680 ohm resistor to the cathod side of the led (long leg of the led) and insert the other end of the resistor into the B+ terminal and the other side of the LED into the FEN terminal. Now to get it to display codes on this led insert a wire in the diagnostic connector between terminals TEN and GND. Turn the ignition to the on position and record the codes.
As far as i know the codes on a JDM ecu are the same as the USDM ones. The terminals im referring to are labeled as such on both the JDM and USDM vehicles.

Didn't have any LED at hand, much less a resistor of any sort. Instead, I plugged a voltmeter in: positive lead to B+, negative lead to FEN. Saw 12+ volts for a couple of seconds after turning the ignition key to ON, then it went down to almost 0 volts and stayed that way, so I guess there are no codes in memory.
