If your vehicle is 1995 or later, you will need a scanner tool to pull the trouble codes. AutoZone and similar auto parts stores offer free scans. If your vehicle is 1994 or older, you can manually pull the trouble codes. Check out a repair manual (Hayne's or Chilton's) at your local library - chapter 6 has all the details on how to do it; also what each code means and how to trouble shoot.
