you need to unhook your negative cable for a few that will reset>
i just changed my batterys out on my truck now my check engine light is on?
Did you reset the light? I don't know what gasket you changed, but undoubtedly that was not the problem. The check engine light comes on when there is a problem with the emissions system.
Then you may want to have a mechanic check it out.
changed battery engine light stays on
You probably replaces the purge solenoid on the intake, you want the vent solenoid at the canister.
There are pages and pages of things that can cause a check engine light. You need to have it checked with a scantool. Then the code can be diagnosed and repaired.
Check your charcoal fuel canister. I had the same problem changed the light went out. The problem fixed.
There are hundreds of things that can couse a check engine light. You need to have it checked for codes.
iT COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY "TOPPING OFF" THE GAS TANK. tHE EXTRA FUEL SPILLS OVER IN TO THE CHARCOAL CANISTER WHICH IS A PART OF THE EMMISIONS SYSTEM AND TRIPS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON.

Your check engine light will not come on because your coolant needs to be changed. The only way to be totally sure why it is on you should get it checked with a computer at a dealer or service station. The check engine light may come on if it is over heating because there is no coolant in it but not if it just has to be changed.
On some vehicle it does as it is supposed to be vented through a canister and not the cap for emissions reasons. Another reason you fail a smog test if check engine light is on.
