Yes, it is a component and like all components it can fail.
You have to check the engine light that is ever on after you put your stack in your 2006 Dodge RAM 2500to ascertain everything is working.
You can reset the check engine light, on your 1998 Land Rover, by repairing what ever is causing the light to stay on. You can determine the cause by using a diagnostic tester.
The check engine light ALWAYS means that the computer has detected a "fault". Rather than have a special light for every conceivable problem that might EVER come up with your engine, the check engine light is supposed to warn you to read the codes that the computer has detected. Even if the light goes off there should be a "stored code", meaning that there should still be something in the computer. If not, have the codes checked when the engine is cold, see what you can find.
That is commonly known as the "Check Engine" light. The light is on because the vehicle's on board diagnostics as detected a problem. Have a trusted mechanic take a look at it soon. If the "Check Engine" light ever flashes while you're driving, stop the car when it is safe to do so and shut off the engine immediately. If you continue to drive the car with that light flashing you risk doing serious expensive damage.
you do not fix the light. you fix what ever caused the light to come on. so the lenght of time depends on the cause for the light to go on on the first place.
If the problem is fixed, the computer will pass when it runs its self diagnostics and the light will eventually turn off.
When ever the check engine light comes on, the cars computer has been given a code from the engine. Go to any auto shop with a dyignostic computer. They will hook it up to the cars computer and it will give the code to the dyignostic computer and they will tell you what the code stands for and than you will find out that is wrong with your car.
My check engine light went on 2 weeks after I bought it (5 years ago). I did a little research and found out that a high percentage of these cars "check engine" lights go on and stay on for no reasons what so ever. You can reset it by taking off and then putting your battery cables back on.
1. It burn 20 seconds then it boil in the pan 2. Then you have to put what ever you was going to put and there 3. You have to check and see if it is done if it is hamburger check it I hope this answer is good for you
Be sure to check your gas cap !! The only time my Vibe has ever had the check engine light come on, is when we didnt tighten the gas cap after filling up! The car had 300 miles on it the first time!! Ug! Tighten it, and drive about 20 miles, it may reset it self if not, then when the car is turned off and then back on it should.
You were working the engine extremely hard. A 1989 Buick is not designed to tow such a load. It is not uncommon for an engine to burn oil when working very hard. Make sure you did not overheat this engine.
Is this a trick question? My answer is "there is no problem". It Depends on the code that will detrmined what the problem was. or what ever you fix it with was the problem
