Answer Depends on which vehicle but a sure fire way to extinguish the MIL malfunction indication light is to have the codes read and re-set by the use of a diagnostics machine If you know why it came on, you can simply disconnect the negative cable from the battery. Make sure your radio doesn't need a code for anti theft. Reconnect in 30 minutes, if problem was caused by something that was minor and fixed out of a repair center, it will go off and stay off.
