where to check for 'check engine' light

hey everybody, i got a 'check engine' light, I heard that if I go to autozone, they'll check it for me for free to see what's wrong, is there any other place that I can go to? thanks.

Usually they can only read OBD-2 (beginning with '96). Osuperjohno HAS to tell us what year before we can help much.
