Can you read out the error code?

So guys, I have a problem and I want to read out the error code on a Ford Escort convertible. Year of manufacture 1994 1.6i 16V Is there any way to read it out about the turn signals, so that you only take a paper clip that is in the control unit and that then spends it on the turn signal. So, like Blinkcodes or something like that. I only know that something like that works with OPEL, but I don’t know about the FORD. Maybe you can help me there. Since I don’t want to go to the Ford workshop first.
