Turn the ignition key to on position and back to off position 3 times.
Next way is to disconnect the negative battery cable for atleast 10 minutes.
Depending on the vehicle the check engine light would illuminate.
Go to the nearest MBZ dealer and let them diagnose your vehicle before it's too late.
To clear the change engine oil light, press the gas station symbol on the steering wheel until the engine oil % appears on the dash. Next press and hold the arrow on the steering wheel. Engine oil life should now read 100%.
1. Purchase an OBD II code reader machine from an auto parts store.
2. Or the easier, cheaper way: take your vehicle to Aamco Transmissions or Midas shop and they will check it for free!
If the Volvo is 1995 or newer, they can pull the codes very easily.
If it's 1994 or older, they can pull the codes but it takes more labor.
Whichever shop you go to may charge you if your Volvo is 1994 or older. But you can always try to negotiate the price down and see if they'll go for it.
The Aamco I took my '94 to wanted $98. I said forget it, but since they took so long with my car they through in the test free.
In order to reset the service light on a 2000 reg Megan you\'ll need to start by turning the ignition switch to the "On" position without starting the engine. Once the service light appears on the dashboard you can reset it by following these steps:
After following these steps the service light should reset and no longer appear on the dashboard.

Click here for details on how to get the codes if the following instructions don't work!
(1) Cycle the ignition key On - Off - On - Off - On within 5 seconds.
(2) The Odometer will show the P-code.
(3) If no DTC's are present, the cluster will display one of two texts: "P1684" and "done" or only "done." P1684 indicates that the memory has been cleared within the last 50 ignition cycles and does not indicate a problem. Done indicates that NO DTCs are present.
Ho2S = heated oxyen sensor, TP = throttle position, MAF = mass airflow, MAP = manifold absolute pressure, TC=turbocharger.
Some codes might not be used by Chrysler, or might only be used by some later Chrysler models (e.g. Charger). These will be italicized.
If the check engine light is blinking on your 2005 Dodge Stratus, you most likely have a sensor that is damaged or requires replacement. You can check this by accessing the diagnostic computer at the dealership.

Disconnect the positive cable on the battery and reconnect it that should reset it. If there is a true problem it will come back on. or go to an advance or autozone and they will erase the code for you free.
I think the check suspension plug is under the hood on the pass. side and you would need a OBD1 scanner to check it. It's usually gray in color and says air suspension on it.

The Check Engine Light has come on because the computer has detected a problem with the emissions system. It has nothing to do with the coolant. Take it to a trusted professional and he will scan the computer with an OBD2 scan tool. He will use the fault code as a guide to determine what the problem is. also if you had recently messed with the engine as in unplug something and turned the car on the the light will be on for a few days but eventully turn off
Your engine is running too lean, probably the result of either a vacuum leak or possibly a damaged EGR valve. You will damage the valves, pistons or who knows what if you don't take care of this problem immediately.
The Select button and the set button, hold them down together, should reset with in a couple of seconds.
Evap control systems are often times difficult to diagnose. Try using information here: http://www.gearchatter.com/viewpost17788.php If that is more than you want to deal with you may want to take it to a good mechanic.
This fixed it on my Ford. Part cost about $50 at the ford dealer. The oxygen sensor is located below the engine in the exhaust pipe before the catalytic converter and muffler. It is mounted in the pipe with wires going to it. You need a special socket to remove it in most cases but sometimes you can do it with a wrench. When replacing it be sure to put anti seize lubricant on the threads so it can be serviced again in the future. It came with the anti seize lube. Just make sure the anti-seize your using will not damage the O2 sensor your installing if your not using what was provided . Your best to find out if this is the reason the light is on, as it may be just a loose gas cap. Before you do anything, go to Autozone and use their loan a tool program to chech out an OBD-II code reader. Follow the instructions on the box, or if you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself (it's really easy), have one of the store employees do it for you. My check engine light came on this past winter, and it turned out that one side of the engine was too lean. I remember the light came on when I started the explorer on a particularly cold day. Anyway, once you reset it, it probably won't come back on unless there is something wrong with some component. Go to Auozone and have the code downloaded, then come back to this site and ask how to fix that code. Oxygen sensors usually go first, but you can get a light even from having a loose gas cap.
On dodge Neon you turn the ignition key 3 times (without going as far as turning the engine on). Maybe samne on many if not all cars? Then the codes will blink and you'll need the ODB2 code listing. Other option is to connect an ODB2 reader on the car's connector and read the codes directly.
This could be the voltage regulator. Both the positive from the battery and the starter would be connected to it.
Yes, but with the provision that there are no problems as seen by the car's computer. Disconnect the negative battery cable for a couple of minutes then reconnect. This will erase any trouble codes stored in the computer. If everything is okay, the CHECK ENGINE light will stay off. If the computer sees a problem, the CHECK ENGINE light will come on again.
It could be a number of different things; if the radio and other electrical things work with the key to acc. then it is most likely not electrical. It would be best to take it to a mechanic and have them scan it to see what is wrong. Hope this helps.
Check Engine ... self explanatory ... check the engine. Check fluids, air filter, water in the coolant system, oxygen sensor, bad spark plugs, electrical problems, loose nut behind the steering wheel - could be any number of things ... check everything in the engine area.
I just removed a 1.7 Diesel starter motor.
ALLWAYS DISCONNECT BATTERY NEGATIVE TERMINAL (10 mm)
Remove top half of inlet manifold (8mm 12sided socket or spanner)
Undo the two plastic bolts on the expansion tank (water bottle. 10mm)
Move tank out the way
Look down onto starter motor; remove bolt on which goes through bell housing into starter motor (16mm )
Jack car up; from underneath look up to starter motor, remove bolt which goes through the starter into gearbox (15mm)
Remove nut from starter solenoid (little part of starter motor. 13 mm)
Undo Philips bolt and disconnect wire
You have removed your starter motor
First, reset the computer by disconnecting the negative battery cable for a couple of minutes then reconnect. If the CHECK ENGINE light still comes on, check the gas cap and make sure it is tight. Due to emission rules (OBDII), the computer checks to make sure the gas cap seals the gas tank. You might have to replace the gas cap.
That can be caused by an number of reasons. The most common is a misfire or a multiple cylinder misfire. This can me caused from an internal oil leak into the spark plugs. You can go to an Auto Zone or any place like that and they can hook the Jeep up to a diagnostic machine to let you know what the code is. That will help you figure out where to start to fix the problem. If the light is flashing do not drive it because it is something more serious.
