Default Check engine light on

Whats up everyone first time poster here. The check engine light just came on in my 95 LS. Does anyone know how to extract the code from the ECU, and is there a conversion chart somewhere in this site?

The link that was put in the first reply specifically tells you how to retrieve the codes. Maybe you didn't use the link or missed the information in the link about how to retrieve the codes.

have you tried searching? You know, you COULD go to the auto store and buy a code scanner from Kragen or Autozone, and get the code, then return it when u are done with it. Or a self-diagnose, but i dont know if this works for the 95, it does for the 90-94.

The link tells you the code meanings when you get the codes.
