if you can not get to an autozone or similar to get teh codes, do teh key trick. Turn the key off-on-off-on-off-on and see what is deiplayed in your odometer display. Should be a series of P codes and then done. Or no codes if none are present. Do not go to start with the key just to on and it needs to be pretty fast between on and off.
