Disconnect the negative battery cable for 10 minutes.

On a lot of late model vehicles, made in the last 10 years, that will no longer work. You will need access to a scan tool to reset the check engine light. Also, if the cause of the light has not been repaired, the light will come back on.

How do you reset the 'Check Engine' light on a 2001 Ford Ranger?

Disconnect the battery cables for 15 minutes. Then put the key in the ignition and turn it as if to start the motor, and hold it in that position for 30 seconds. (This resets the computer, codes, engine, everything.) When powering it back up and running the engine, it may run slightly rough for the first few minutes as the motor resets and re-samples all systems.
