i would take the vehicle to the nearest autozone or mechanic if you want to pay.

get the code, post back here, and i can explain to you what is wrong.

you could also buy a code reader and test it yourself.

That's a good idea to read the code first.
I paid 200 bucks for a code reader at autozone. It has a lot of feature on this little scanner.

the scan tools are definetely worth it, especially if you cant make it to a place to have it worked on and doing it yourself is the only way!
