To reset the check engine light on a 1996 GMC truck, you can disconnect the battery by removing the negative terminal for about 15 minutes. This will clear the vehicle's computer memory and reset the light. Alternatively, you can use an OBD-II scanner to erase the trouble codes, which will also turn off the check engine light. However, it's important to address the underlying issue that triggered the light to ensure it doesn't come back on.

I have a 2006 Chevrolet C4500 Duramax Diesel and I would like to know how to turn off or reset the check engine light on the truck.
Have vehicle scanned to determine the problem and have codes cleared
Take it to Autozone (or your local parts store) and they will connect the scan tool to your truck, then you will press reset.
For any new truck you may have to have the computer reset you can find one at Wal mart for 98$ plus tax or order on off the web. It reads what the truck problems are .
That depends entirely on the reason why the check engine light is on.
That requires a scan tool.
i just changed my batterys out on my truck now my check engine light is on?
Try disconnecting battery for about 10 mins. or have vehicle scanned to determine problem or have codes cleared
That is the check engine light. Looks like a picture of an engine.
First off repair the problem that set the light or it will just come back on. You can try disconnecting the negative battery cable for 5 minutes. If that does not work you will need to have it reset with a OBD2 scan tool.
Usely require a dianostic tool which you can buy at any parts store or try this unplug the positive side of battery.
