After having the check engine light reset, you generally need to drive the vehicle for about 50 to 100 miles to allow the onboard diagnostic system to run various tests and recheck the vehicle's systems. This drive cycle typically includes a mix of city and highway driving to ensure all sensors and components are evaluated. If the light comes back on, it indicates that there is still an issue that needs to be addressed.
