C4 Code Reader needed in Antioch, CA

Does anyone who lives near Antioch, CA have a C4 (1993) code reader? My "Service Engine Soon" light just came one. I had a 100,000 mile tune-up done 8000 miles ago and an oil change done 3000 miles ago. Since no other light comes on, I want to find out what fault code is being thrown before I take it in to the dealer.

Thanks in advance...

I'm not familiar with doing that. How does that let me know what fault code is being thrown? I'll do a search on this forum to see if I can find any info on that.

the ODB (? ) connector under the dash usually can be jumpered to flash the codes with the check engine light

The C4's with the newer dash can make the codes come up on the dashboard. It's in the service manual.
