If you know someone with a device that will scan codes I know you can do it that way but I'm not too sure about how to do it without one.

92's are not OBD2 so what you think of as a code reader is not compatible. You need to read the codes with an EEC scanner or a paperclip and fix the problem before clearing them - if the light comes back on, you haven't fixed the problem.
