Re: [DMCForum] [OT] need to read check engine codes

Well I just talked with one of my friends and he did know exactly what I was

You didn't need an ODB-II code scanner but you do need some kind of
computer, about $7 worth of cable ends, and write a little program.  So it
probably would be easier to get a code scanner.
