Need my CEL code pulled quickly, please help.

My friend told me that autozone would pull my CEL code for free... So i called them today and they said that they no longer pull CEL codes at all. I'm gonna to install my turbo kit this coming weekend. But i wanna get rid of the CEL before. If somebody could let me know any places or person that could pull the code for me for free or for a decent price, please let me know. I just need the code pulled to see whats wrong, i'll fix whatever is wrong myself. I would just not like this to push back the time on my turbo install.

Thanks in advance,
-Paul

Try Contacting Skywalker. I think he might be able to help. I would say christoph1371, but I know that he is out of town. I have a OBDII scanner but I will not be back in the Bay until this Saturday.

I have an OBDII scanner. How long has the light been on? Is the light steady or flashing? Have you checked the fuel cap to see if its on tight? Is the car misfiring?

Thanks for the replies. The CEL came on like 5 months ago, and my friend told me to reset my ecu... so i did and it went away, but it came back 2 months ago. It's a steady light, has never flashed before. Just stays on brightly glaring at me as i drive. And yes i checked the fuel cap a couple of times before, it's always tightly on. My car still feels like its performs and runs exactly the same as always. So i have no clue as to whats wrong. I dont think its misfiring, I've never driven a car that misfired before, but i'm guessing it would be obvious if it was, right? I'm just hoping its a sensor or something. But i'm really not sure what it is... I know i shoulda gotten it checked out earlier, but people were charging me over $200 to just pull the code. And i didnt wanna pay that much to have it pulled. I don't do all that much driving and i'm almost always at work or school so i havent had time to get it checked out.

Scoobiesnacks your PM box is full so i can't send you a PM.

So i'm just gonna copy paste what i wrote in the PM and you can either reply or PM me back:

Thanks for offering to pull my CEL code. I've never been out to one of the wednesday in and out meets before, but i know its not that far for me to drive. I'll drive to whereever is closest or easiest for you, i dont really mind driving. I'm free anytime in the evenings after 4:00 usually. Just let me know when ever you have the free time or would like to do it.

Thank you so much for offering the help, its well appriciated,
-Paul
