Thumbs up

you can read the codes without a reader in our trucks. I do it all the time. you put your key in and turn it to on three times (as in on, then off, then on, then off, then on) and keep it on the third time. your odometer area will then show you what codes are currently stored. See this video, it's for an older Dak but it works just fine.
