Release DTCs without scanner?

Is there a way to release codes without a scanner? The car isn't drivable at the moment and Im getting a check engine light. Thanks.

What year is your car? I'm thinking '93 was the last year you could do it without a scanner.

It's an '01 drivetrain/ECU. I know you can get the codes out of OBD2 Chryslers by turning the key on and off several times, and cant you jump a pin or two on OBD1 cars after 93?

not that im aware of, but I will say most autozones will scan your vehicle for free.

This is one cool feature on the C5's. You can scan through all DTC's on the DIC and reset them by holding a couple of buttons on the dash.

They'll even clear the code for you too if you want.
