'Check engine' means something is wrong and you need to check it. If it's 'Check Engine', then you need to go here:
http://www.brickboard.com/FAQ/700-900/EngineOBDCodes.htm
and read how to retrieve the codes to find out what is wrong with your car. If it's a 1988 though, I'm not sure if you have OBD (OnBoard Diagnostics) or not. The FAQ says 1988 and newer has it, so you should hopefully have it.
'Service' is a periodic reminder that you can reset. The procedure for resetting is here:
