Your service light comes on BECAUSE there's something that needs attention on your vehicle.

You can do a few of things, though to turn it off. One, FIX THE PROBLEM. Two, find someone with a code reader and figure out what the problem is, and then FIX THE PROBLEM, or three, you can toy around with it until accidentally, YOU FIX THE PROBLEM.

Of course, you can turn the lamp off by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. But if there's still a problem, the light will come on again, until you FIX THE PROBLEM.

Helpful suggestion? It may be something as simple as needing to replace or reseat the gas cap. HAD THAT PROBLEM on my Ford and it turned out the gas cap was worn out and needed to be replaced. NO PROBLEM. But then again, I found someone with a code reader and figured it out (one of my local parts stores, and it was free). Do you meant the orange spanner light? You may need a service. Carry out the service then follow the procedure below to reset the service light.
