You need a auto scanner, it reads codes on your onboard computer. If the problem is not fixed the light will keep coming on. After the problem is fixed you can use the scanner to turn off the check engine light. Auto scanner can be expensive but if you like to work on your own vehicles it will pay for it self, if not go to your local dealership and they will read the codes but like i said the problem will have to be fixed.
