There's a service connector on the right side of the dash, you just have to jumper across the terminals and it will flash out the code for you. Google it, its really easy to get the codes from OBD1 stuff.

YEAH, there is no scanner for the OBD1 computers.... Just jump the 2-prong service connector, turn the ignition to the "on" position, and read the blinking cel! First digit will be a long flash. second digit will be short flashes.

There -is- definitely a scanner (quite a few) for ODB1, though as aforementioned, you can simply jumper the service connector - albeit that wouldn't give you the low down that something like my Solus would.
