My engine check light came on this morning, oil pressure is OK, temp, charging all ok, don't really see anything wrong.

So how do you check the codes on a YJ????

Ok, turn the jeep upsidedown and cross the batt terminals, then turn the wipers on, then take the spare tire a off and roll it with a stick down your street twice. then go inside your home and drink a glass of warm milk..................................I dont know how to read them w/ out a scanner

really, in the little diagnostic port under your dash w/ the key off take a paper clip and groung the A & B ports to get the light to flash the codes on the dash?

I don't think mine is that sophisticated...just put some duct tape over the light.

ehhh... on the XJ I think you just turn the key off/on like 3 times or something and the light blinks the code.

It says how to read them in a chiltons or hayne's...
