Either purchase an OBDII code reader from the auto parts store or use the three key-turn method.

If you turn the key three times without starting, and the last time you leave it in the acc on position, the engine light will flash, giving you the older more general codes. There are other questions on the board that have been answered to explain this method much better than I can.

With the OBDII code readers going for less than 60 dollars now, It may be a good investment to buy one for your car. It will definitely save you money if a repair shop tells you the "computer says its your fuel injectors" when the scan tool tells you that its something like an "egr leak"
