I'll wager if you pull out your desk drawer and rummage around in there you will find a "scan tool"



and how to use it:

Takes less than a minute to pull any stored codes.

Seriously, all you need is a paper clip (a metal one is preferred) to jumper the diagnostic port and then at least one working eye ball to look at the check engine light flashes. The rest is just counting the flashes.

#5 Is the O2 Sensor
#7 Is the TPS Throttle Position Sensor
#12 Is the knock sensor


Ok These are easily replaced, Also you should check the wires for damage first. The O2 Sensor is screwed into the exhaust manufold. The Knock sensor is below the intake manifold, The TPS is attached to the side of the throttle body.
