autozone will read the code for free.
the CEL may go away on its own as well, after a few days. | | | | | 07-14-2006, 08:56 PM | #4 | | Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: New Jersey Posts: 38 | Check engine light

Had you just put gas in the car? Sometimes if you don't put the gas cap back on real tight you will get a CEL that will go away. Atleast my two newer cars do that. | | | | |
