A lit Check Engine light indicates there is a malfunction that has been detected and a diagnosis needs to be done with an OBDII scanner to find the problem. If there is no problem, the Check Engine light can be reset either with the OBDII scanner or by disconnecting the negative battery terminal for a couple of minutes. Word of caution: when resetting by disconnecting the battery, the computer's Keep Alive Memory will be erased and the vehicle will run rough for several miles until the computer re-learns the settings.
