The check engine light (service engine soon) comes on and stays on when a problem is detected by the self diagnosis system of your vehicle. Generally, the problem is in the emissions or something that is affecting the effectiveness of the emissions, but other causes can trigger the light to come on, too. To determine the cause, the vehicle will need to be taken to a parts store or a shop that has an OBD2 scanner, or for 1995 and earlier models, an OBD1 scanner, While a scanner will not give you the magic answer, it will give you a code that narrows down the problem area.
Yes, the Service Engine Soon light is the same as the Check Engine light.
why appear light ( service engine soon), after change oil on a 2001 ford pickup (f150)?
disconnect the positive connector on the battery
The vehicle is due a service soon
hubs
If the 2001 Mitsubishi Mirage won't start and has the service engine light on, you probably have an issue with a sensor. This could be a problem with an electrical or oxygen sensor.
That requires an OBDII engine scanner.
I WOULDNT ADVISE DOING THAT.

There is no code associated with the "Change Oil" light like there is with the "Service Engine Soon" light.
