I have a '99 Legacy sedan 2.2. How do I read & reset the error codes set into the computer? Haynes does not yet make a manual for the 1999 Legacy.

With an OBDII scan tool.
that only works on OLD GM's....and a paperclip worked just as well for them. for Newer GM's, and any US market vehicle after about 96 (sooner for some) you need an OBDII scan tool, and a good one will cost ya more than $40.
A great one more. The one I use requires a lap-top, but it will also chart/graph many readins. Makes trouble shooting ever so much easier.
Bare in mind almost no generic scanner will reset some of the builder specific codes, like oil change.
