Hmm... those are not normal codes. The key-on method to get 'em deliver 2 digit codes. And they don't have zeros in them. I'm going to GUESS and say you got a code 22 and a code 33.
Code 22: Coolant sensor signal out of range. Did you do anything under the hood? Change your t-stat? Forget to plug this back in? If not, you may have a sensor gone bad. This will definately cause the check engine light to come on.
Code 33: Air conditioning clutch relay circuit open or shorted. Does your A/C work? Blow cold? Stopped working a while ago? I don't believe a code 33 will set off the check engine light, so this may be an old code that's still active.
I'd drop by Autozone and get a free scan. They'll give you a code like P0311, or something that starts with a 'P'. Those a much better codes to diagnose with, as they point at WHICH sensor is out of range.
All the codes are available at http://www.misterfixit.com/moparcod.htm

Without a " scanner " -=- disconnect negative of
battery for a few minutes
[ may be necessary to turn key on and to start position while battery is disconnected-=- this totally discharges any stored voltage ]
Then reconnect and 'go'
NOTE : especially if you have " mods "
the computer will need a bit of running , maybe
a couple of trips to fully reconfigure to
optimum performance/fuel mileage
