yes there is. all you need is a paper clip. bend it into a u shape, get under the dash ( below the steering collum ) on the right there is the diagnosticport. bridge the A and B slots over. just turn the key to the on pos. then just watch the s.e.s light it will flash 14 to let you know that the diagnostic is working then it will flash the codes to you. then just post us the codes and we will try and help you

Re: service engine light
you cant jump an OBD 1 or 2 like you are asking. you have to have a code reader to get what the light is on for. if you have an auto zone around you, they scan codes for free. other than that, you have to take it to a shop, unless you are like me and have a code scanner at your house...

Re: service engine light
it comes in handy, especially when you need money and a friend has somebody with a check engine light on
