Welcome to the forum

1994 Ranger uses 3 digit codes, list is here: https://www.therangerstation.com/tec...gitcodes.shtml

111 is "system OK"

4 digit codes didn't start until 1995 Rangers and the newer computers running OBD2
And in 1995 and up 1111 means "system pass", so same as "system OK"
Also in 1995 and up "1" at the start means its a FORD specific code, so to look it up you have to look at Ford only OBD2 code list, so not a "google search"

Use this Ford code list for your 1994 Ranger: https://www.therangerstation.com/tec...gitcodes.shtml
Click on it, don't C&P

Yes, 111 means system OK

522 means your clutch pedal switch was not showing Ground when pedal was pressed down all the way

Previous owner may have by-passed the clutch switch because of trouble starting the engine
The code itself won't cause any running/driving issues

On the clutch pedal is the pushrod, there is a slide on switch on that pushrod, thats the clutch switch
When clutch pedal is pushed down all the way the switch is forced closed, this grounds the computer's "Neutral pin" and connects key and starter motor so you can start engine
522 has to do with neutral pin

I've had truck since 99. I've rebuilt motor and trans in out 3 times. I'll need to check the switch, thanks for all the info. I'm a good parts changer not at diagnosing....
