I assume you are speaking of your CHECK ENGINE Light. Since you are driving a 1989 GM - it could be a bunch of things. Try this. Disconnect BOTH battery Cables. Touch them together for 10 seconds. Reconnent the cables to the battery. This can sometimes reset the computer. But, you'll have to reprogram the time and favorites on your Radio, etc... If, after doing this, the light comes back on. You'll need to take it to a servicer who can determine which code is causing the light to come on. Then you can get it fixed. Hope this helps. I don't know if this applies to your problem as my year of make is newer (2004) but, IF your Gas cap is NOT 'Clicked' tightly, it CAN cause the "Check Engine" red light to come on...and it will stay on until the cap is properly setin place. I hope it is this easy. Good Luck. LOL on your first answer.....first off, a grand marquis is not a gm. and on this model of vehicle there are 2 engine lights. one says "engine" the other says "check engine".......in your manual for the ccar, it tells you that this light will come in if the oil pressure is too low, or coolant is low and engine is getting too hot. this is a factual answer lol. this guy above cracks me up saying a Mercury is a gm product...its a Ford dude. haha
