CEL again

Pulling my camper this weekend and the CEL comes on again on my 2005 6.0 Ex with a Sept 2004 engine manufacture date. The truck is running fine and the instrument cluster gauges are all normal, so just continued there and back, about 300 miles. This is the third time since I have owned the truck that the CEL has come on. It has been previously for a sticking turbo vane, then bad glow plug and I forget at the moment the third. Thinking I need something to read codes and maybe monitor some functions on a stock truck.

Looking for reccomendations that do not break the bank.

Take it down to your local parts store, they will check codes for free.
