How do you turn off the check engine light on a 2001 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0 6 that has absolutely nothing wrong with it and it has been on for well over a year and tried to reset by unpluging the battery?

The check engine lights on 1996 and newer can only be turned off using a code reader designed for OBD II. I do know that AutoZone will read the codes for free if there is one nearby you. If you are in a state that requires emission testing, clearing the code will keep them from passing it until the computer has cycled enough times to read all the sensors enough times. Also, you probably won't be able to detect most things that cause the light to come on, the sensors in these systems can measure very small changes. Repairing the problem is the best way to turn it off.
