Hi, I'm a n00b when it comes to VW. My gf has a 2000 beetle 1.8t and the other day her check engine light came on and her blinker lights stay constant when she tries to use them!

What do I do to check this engine light code!? And where do I find the codes to figure out the source of the problem? I'm more of a DIYer and I'd really appreciate the help!
