Harbor Freight, both online and at the local stores sell inexpensive scan tools if you are in the market for such a device. The scan tool will let you read and reset the codes. Also, most all auto stores will let you borrow one from the store will you are parked outside thier store, or someone will do it for you from the store.

I recall having one or both of those codes a couple of years ago. The problem was simple. I found a hose had fallen off due to a crack in the hose end. The hose was located on the black canister located on the frame under the driver side door. I cut the end of the hose off and pushed it back on to get rid of those codes.

There have been issues with northern vesicles and road salt ruining the brackets and clamps.

For Check Engine Light codes I use the Torque App ($5) on an android device. Get a bluetooth OBDII adapter on amazon ($23) and it will let you get all of the codes and reset them. (The engine needs to be off with the switch on to reset the codes.)
Here is the adapter I bought on Amazon.com

I leave it plugged in all the time and read important engine data from the PCM while driving. Works like a charm. You won't be disappointed.
