You can do the scan yourself with a paper clip. Just make sure you count the flashes correctly and match the number with appropriate code.
Slow flash = 10
Fast flash = 1
Slow flash = 10
Fast flash = 1

AutoZone has free loaners, provided you give them a credit card. They basically charge it for the full amount ($200+) and then refund you (or release the charge) when you return it.
