No check engine light

Hello,

I currently have a 2002 E250 with a tranny problem. Someone asked me if my check engine light is on. It is not on, and it made me check if it is functioning or not. It is supposed to light up for a second when the key is turned, which it does not. I assume there may still be error codes that I do not know about.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

And just because there is no light, does not mean you can't take it somewhere and still get the codes read. Some of the stores will do it for free.
