Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis,finding out what's going on.

Depends on the hourly rate. An independent shop will be much less then the dealership for diagnosng the check engine light. As for the service light, getting an oil change most places will reset that for you.
