instead of wasting money that you don't need to, puh the button on the side of your shift knob. That's the ETS button. It will turn it on.
The check engine light comes on in a car when there is a problem with the engine. It will go off or be reset when the problem is fixed.
If the problem was not fixed, then yes.
On most vehicles, after the problem is taken care of, the check engine light resets automatically after the ignition is turned off and then the engine is started again. If you have fixed one problem, a second problem probably exists.
A person can reset the check engine light by using an OBD scanner to clear the codes. This is after the problem is fixed.
Yes. Once the car's computer is no longer see the malfunction, it will no longer turn on the check engine light. Have the car diagnosed to find out the exact problem.
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
That varies with the problem. Could be immediate, or could take a week.
It is important to pay attention to the warning lights in a vehicle. When the check engine lights are on, it indicates a problem, and it needs to be fixed.
If the problem has been fixed and the light remains on you need to disconnect the battery and then reconnect it. That should reset the check engine light.
Have the computer scanned. Then have the problem fixed that has set the code.
The check engine light goes on because there is a problem with the engine control system. Until the problem is fixed it will continue to come back on even after you clear it by disconnecting the battery.
If the problem was fixed, the check engine light should turn off after a certain amount of times of turning on and off the car.
