We just had ours reset today and the guy used a computer hooked up to our car. He told us the is the only way to do it. I'm thinking you should be able to unhook the battery though. Make sure you have all your codes before doing this though.
how do i reset the check engine light on a 1999 acura 3.2tl
check engine light reset on a 1999 Acura CL 3.0.. Just replaced the egr valve. Thx
with a scan tool
The easiest way to reset the check engine light on a 1995 Acura Integra is to unhook the battery for a few minutes. If the light is still on after hooking it up again, there is probably still a problem that needs to be fixed with the engine.
Disconnect the Battery for 5 minutes
u do a poo
After repairing the cause of the code, you reset it with a scan tool.
remove the alternator fuse for 20 seconds.
Have vehicle scanned to determine problem and have codes cleared
take it to your mechanic so he can run a diagnostic.
Remove the negative battery terminal for three minutes.
A handheld scan at $99 from Canadian Tire will do the trick.
