We can't solve anything without the codes. Well, that's not true; you could pull the bulb out for the CEL, then you wouldn't have to see it anymore.
You don't need to be a 'professional mechanic', all you need is be able to read, and have a screwdriver.
Did you look in the stickies? It's aptly named:

It's impossible for us to help you figure out what your problem is without knowing what the codes and symptoms are. Find the code(s), then go from there.
Read here on how to get codes:

thanks for the support, i think i can handle this and get the code, but as for fixing it once i know...i dont think i will temp it as im not good with fixing cars. will ask you guys for more help soon.

If you don't plan on fixing it just take it to a shop. They will scan the code diagnose the problem and fix it. However, some problems can be as simple as reading a how to, turning a wrench, and popping in a new part or sensor.
