Checking codes with test light

Can I check codes with a test light on a 97 Taco 2.7, it won't start so I can't get to the zone.

 

Not sure what a test light is, but at autozone, I believe you can put a deposit down on a reader ($250??) and take it away from their business.

 

It won't help you now, but if you have Amazon Prime you could get this for tomorrow:

$16 Autel MS300 OBD2 Scanner Code Reader, Turn Off Check Engine Light, Read & Erase Fault Codes, Check Emission Monitor Status CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool

I have one as well as two bluetooth ones. Works great. If you don't have amazon prime, you can paypal me 25 bucks with a name/address and I can get one overnighted for ya.

 

Thanks for the info, I'm ordering one tonight.
