And yes, there's the trick with the key, turning it on three times within a couple of seconds and noting how many times the check engine light blinks in between blanks.
For those of you who can afford a scanner, the lazy man's way, you'll need the Chrysler Actron Cable offered at summit and connected to your Actron Scanner: The Cable
It's compatible with Actron scanners:
CP9190, CP9185, CP9150, CP9145
Fwiw it appears that the data link, the connector, is located under the hood near the ECU/Computer.
A photo of the data link, identical to what's on my '94 B250, is shown being held in someone's fingers under the heading of DaimlerChrysler Corporation - OBD-1 Systems at this URL.

Or if I feel like it I can get the with all of the OBD-1 adaptor cables for Ford, Chevy and Chrysler and probably other makes as well.

I'm new to the forum, and late to this discussion, but I'd like to add that OBD-I to OBD-II cables exist and are quite reasonably priced on eBay. I used one to attach my MetroMile device yesterday, and today got the report that it called home successfully and the app shows me the van's location and fuel level, so it's apparently got power and can read engine data, and it would seem quite likely that the bluetooth and USB devices would work as well to check and clear engine codes. I'll try Torque app once I find my bluetooth OBD-II device and OBD-II splitter.
