Gonna need a code reader that plugs into the OBD 2 socket under the dash. Turn the ignition on / engine off and read the codes on the scanner.

Most chain auto parts stores will read the codes for you.

I received my ScanGaugeII today, it reads your codes, functions as a trip computer and as digital gauges. I'm finding it rather nifty so far. It's currently plugged into Eugene as we get ready for our off-roading trip to TN.
