Reading trouble codes

[ls1_bc]

Is there any way to read trouble codes without buying an expensive tuning program? Used to be able to get them using a paper clip in my old IROC.

Welcome LS1_BC .... you could probably get a code reader from Crappy Tire but you will pay 250-300 for that anyway so you might was well buy EFIlive or ATAP data logger.

or jsut go to your local autozone or similar - they all do free scans to pull codes.
