If you have auto4wd (auto button on the dash), then you must use a scan tool.  Otherwise, you can use the DIY article that lastcoupe wrote (although I think it has been clipped to 4000 characters...).

Tech2 or equivalent scan tool is required to access the TCCM of an auto4wd optioned vehicle.  Any garage that has the GM enhanced data packs for their snap-on, etc scan tools should be able to access and read the codes.
