What are my options S70

Hi Everyone,
I am looking for some advice for my 99 S70 GLT. I have put alot of money into it and want to stop. I put in a new fuel pump, gear shift knob, maf sensor, shocks, power antenna, spark plugs, all new coil packs, and brakes a year ago.

Tonight my wife was driving my car and said the check engine light went on and then off and then stayed on. I was thinking that I can go to schucks and check out a OBDII reader and figure out what the code is and how severe the problem is. But fixing it might be costly. I have 3 worn tires that might need replacing in a year or two. I just dont want to put more money into the car because it might be time for me to say good bye. The car still runs and is not rough or anything like that but the check engine light is on.

Kelly Blue Book says that if its in mint condition its worth $2100 but it needs 3 new tires and there is a check engine light. I was thinking if I tried to sell it I have to take into account the 3 tires that need replacing and the issue with the check engine light. The junk yard might give $150 or $200? I just dont know what is the best option.

I live in Northern, CA. Does anyone have any ideas if you were me?
