The check engine light comes on to tell you some part of your engine system is not functioning as it should. Soem large auto stores like AutoZone offer free diagnostics. There is a computer outlet or plug in port under the dash of yoru car. A scanning tool, handheld programmer will be plugged in to that port and it will download the codes inside the computer on your car. Once this data is downloaded, it will give a code number which will have to be crosschecked to see what the code means. Your car's check engine light will remain on until this fault is fixed. Sometimes a check engine light will come on and then go out. Did you recently add fuel to your car? Make sure you screw the gas cap on tight, otherwise the check engine light will come on due to the pressure of the fuel not being what is required. Tightening the gas cap will not immediately shut off the check engine light. Normally the computer will monitor the engine and after 50 miles or a certain number of cycles it will shut off the check engine light. If your gas cap is tight and the check engine light stays on, then you are in need of diagnostics.
On 1996 and later model Saturns you must read the codes with a hand held scan tool. When the problem is read and fixed the light will go out. It's probably the O2 sensor, replace that and the light will go out.
Of course not, the problem must be fixed.
If the check engine/service engine light is on, the problem most likely isn't in the ECM. Get it fixed, and it should go off.
If you have fixed the problem it should reset itself. If not, the light will stay on.
The problem was not fixed with a tune up, or the light is on because it was not reset by the service station.
The service engine light is the same thing as a check engine light.
Either have the problem that is causing the light to illuminate fixed or disconnect and reconnect your battery.
YES IT CAN SO GET IT FIXED
Disconnect the battery cable, wait few second that reconnect. That will reset the engine light but doesn't fix the problem. if the problem was not fixed the light will come back on.
Yes, the Service Engine Soon light is the same as the Check Engine light.
No
reset service engine light
