Page G2.025 has a chart that says essentially as follows:


1 blink: -22 degrees spark advance correction. Caused by continued
detonation. Check the cooling system, distributor timing and turbo boost
pressure.


2 blinks: -20 degrees spark advance correction. Caused by battery voltage
less than 10.5 volts. Check the battery and charging circuit.


3 blinks: -20 degrees spark advance correction that can be cancelled only
by turning the ignition switch off. The detonation correction circuit in the
ignition ECU is defective. Try a new ignition ECU.


4 blinks: -20 degrees spark advance correction that can be cancelled only
by turning the ignition switch off. Erroneous signal received from the
detonation sensor (check for engine speed above 3200 rpm.) Check the
detonation sensor (item 172a) and electrical circuit continuity.


5 blinks: -20 degrees spark advance correction that can be cancelled only
by turning the ignition switch off. Signal from the potentiometer is greater
than 4.3 volts. Try a new potentiometer (item 194).


6 blinks (a): -20 degrees spark advance correction that can be cancelled
only by turning the ignition switch off. Connection and wiring between the
ignition ECU and the potentiometer is defective. Check the continuity of the
potentiometer's electrical circuit.


6 blinks (b): Spark advance with microswitch open: full load; with
microswitch closed: idle. No load signal is emanating from the injection
ECU. Check the electrical circuit continuity between pin 8 of the ignition
ECU and pin 6 of the injection ECU (item 181) (wire 6). Try a new ignition
ECU. Try a new injection ECU.

Oohw, this is cool. Now i only have to get that light working...
