How to reset service engine light on a 2000 impala?

Answer 1

you need a obd 2 diagnotic tool. about 125.00 from auto parts store. you plug it in to diagnostics device (under dash) and clear it. it is a great tool for diagnosing alot of other stuff also. or you can go to a service station and they will reset it for about 25.00.

AnswerWhen the check engine light came on it stored a diagnostic code in your car's computer, it also stored information such as engine temp, rpm, what system affected(exhaust, ignition, etc.), etc. If the car goes through the same scenario as it stored in the computer three times without the problem happening again the check engine light will turn off by itself. AnswerIf you know that nothing is wrong or have fixed the problem yourself and want to reset the light, disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, this will reset all fault codes.

THE REAL ANSWER

Look in the owners manual, for all the correct steps, but here is the gist of it. Push in and hold down the button for the radio station turner. It will light up with a few options in the LCD of the radio. scroll through by "sel" and you will find a reset selection.
