Remove the positive and negative lines from the battery for 24 hours and when you hook them back up it should reset the switch and turn off the light
That means there is a problem in the emissions system are the transmission and other places too. You need to have the engine scanned with an engine scanner to see were your problem is.
Anything that can change the emissions of the vehicle. Engine sensors, EGR, gas cap, transmission, etc.
You can run a car without a thermostat. However you will have difficulty with getting heat into the cabin because the engine will run cold. The fuel economy will not be as good, the exhaust emissions will be off (rich) because the engine takes a long time to reach operating temp. The transmission will shift higher because the transmission fluid will take more time to warm up. Hope this helps. "G"
You should drain the oil in the engine. Put engine oil back in the engine because the transmission oil is not made for engines and will hurt the moving parts of the engine if left in.
yes because you can swap a h23 transmission onto an h22 engine
it is on because the ECU has detected a problem with the emissions system.
Replace the light bulb.
6 degrees for the stock engine, or 8 degrees for California emissions, or 12 degrees if it came with the high performance engine. Standard or automatic transmission is the same.
It is on because the ECU has detected a problem with the emissions system.
On the bright side, the fact the "S" indicator light came on indicates it is an electrical problem rather than a mechanical one. When the A/T control unit senses an abnormality in the input or output systems, the "S" indicator light in the gauge assembly will blink. You have an electrical problem with the transmission. The check engine light may be on simply because the transmission is having a problem or it may be on due to an emissions problem. Have the transmission looked at first by a professional and have him reset the CE light. If it comes back on then you also have an emissions problem. Your priority right now is to have the transmission looked at.
Because the ECU has detected a problem with the emissions system.
I would take that to mean the equipment that cleans up the vehicles emissions is removed from the engine.
