You can actually check the code yourself following these sneaky instructions. I list the meaning of the codes after these instructions.
First, at the diagnostic plug, located near the battery under the hood, short the TEN connector to a ground connector. I use:
|------|
\/ |
o o @ o |
o o o o o o o |
o o o o o o |
|---------|
\/
o o @ o o o
o o
Diagnostics Connector
o=pins
@=pins I use for the short
Once connected, turn ignition to ON. I've forgotten the order the digits flash, but here's the definition:
Second digit of service code (ones position)=number of times the check engine light illuminates for 0.4 seconds.
First digit of service code (tens position)=number of times the check engine light illuminates for 1.2 seconds.
Delay between codes is 4.0 seconds.
In other words, one long flash, followed by 5 short flashes (or 5 short flashes followed by one long flash, I can't remember the order) means a code 15. This will repeat again after 4 seconds (or, if your car is really screwed up, a different code will follow).
The ECU will cycle through all the service codes. After reach the last service code the ECU will go back to the first service code and repeat the cycle until the ignition is turned OFF. I wouldn't suggest you do this until the dealer has tried to fix your problem, but you can clear service codes:
Disconnect the negative battery cable. Wait at least 20 seconds then depress the brake pedal.
Reconnect the negative battery cable. Codes should be cleared. If not, a problem may still exist.
The codes are:
02 - Crank angle sensor (NE signal)
03 - Crank angle sensor (G signal)
05 - Knock sensor
06 - Speedometer sensor
09 - Water thermosensor
11 - Intake air themosensor
12 - Throttle sensor (full range)
13 - Pressure sensor
14 - Atmospheric pressure sensor (in ECU)
15 - Oxygen sensor
16 - EGR valve (California only)
17 - Feedback system
18 - Throttle sensor (narrow range)
20 - Metering oil pump position sensor
23 - Fuel thermosensor
25 - Solenoid valve (pressure regulator control)
26 - Metering oil pump (stepping motor)
27 - Metering oil pump
28 - Solenoid valve (EGR)
30 - Solenoid valve (split air bypass)
32 - Solenoid valve (relief 1)
32 - Solenoid valve (switching)
33 - Solenoid valve (port air bypass)
34 - Solenoid valve (idle speed control)
37 - Metering oil pump
38 - Solenoid valve (accelerated warm up system)
39 - Solenoid valve (relief 2)
40 - Solenoid valve (purge control)
42 - Solenoid valve (turbo precontrol)
43 - Solenoid valve (wastegate control)
44 - Solenoid valve (turbo control)
45 - Solenoid valve (charge control)
46 - Solenoid valve (charge relief)
50 - Solenoid valve (double throttle control)
51 - Fuel pump relay
54 - Air pump relay
71 - Injector (front secondary)
73 - Injector (rear secondary)
76 - Slip lock up off signal
77 - Torque reduced signal

Yes, it does. Disconnect the negative battery cable at the battery and then press the brake pedal for a second or two. When you re-connect the battery, all error codes will be flushed from the memory. Warning: If you have the stock radio, and the anti-theft feature is enabled, it will go into anti-theft mode. Make sure you have your 4 digit code to clear it handy! Or better yet, disable the anti-theft system, before disconnecting the battery. (Details in owners manual)
Hope this helps...

Check out this other website for more info on the codes. I don't know if there is any difference with automatics which I'm assuming you have.
