Check Engine Light

needs to be done with a diagnostics machine.

They can, but it could be many other things. You need the error code to find out what.

If the check engine light is blinking , that means an engine cylinder misfire has

been detected . You can drive the vehicle in for repair , just avoid any rapid

acceleration or deceleration because you can damage the catalytic converter

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.

With a scan tool after repairing the cause of the code.

I disconnected the battery and left doors open. I was thinking it would drain the capacitors. I left it for about 30 minutes. The check engine light was off and the warning on the dash disappeared.

With stow and go seating the fuel filter is part of the fuel pump module in the tank.

You have a broken serpentine belt. Replace it.

It is normal if other lights come on at the same time. All of the reminder/warning lights should come on when ignition is in idle (key's in ignition, but the car is not running)

I dont know if this works for these cars or not, worth a try. press & hold trip reset w/ key off turn key to on still holding reset see if service light flashes and goes off after a fiew seconds release reset & turn ign off. Sorry if it doesnt work.

There are pages and pages of things that can cause a check engine light. You need to have it checked with a scantool. Then the code can be diagnosed and repaired.

To reset the engine light on a Toyota Prius, disconnect the negative battery cable and let off for about five minutes, then reconnect it. The light should go off after the first couple start ups.

It could be a clogged of defective positive crankcase ventilation valve. The best way to find out is to have the code pulled from the computer. Many auto parts stores will do this for free.

Mine did this and come to find out it needed a EGR valve. manifold caused this to come on.

In front of the drivers side front wheel

Have it checked for codes. With out knowing the codes, you won't know what to diagnose.

It is found on the pass. side behind the dashboard under panel. You have 2 remove the guard under the pass. side dash first then then their are three screws you have two remove under the glove compartment with a 10m wrench. Then pull the guard forward just so that you can feel the ecm on the other opp. side remove the wireplugs a about three more 10m screws holdin the ecm in place an the ecu is yours.

It fits many Doge, Chrysler, Plymouth, and Jeep applications.
It does fit a 1993 Dodge Caravan 3.3 Liter V6. I know because I had my Caravan for 15 years and just traded it in. It will probably fit many other model years because Dodge never changed the Caravan or engine much over the years.

Ford Fiesta dashboard symbols all have meaning with a purpose. The manual for a Ford with give a brief description of the meanings of these symbols.

Take both the positive and the negative battery cables completely loose from the battery terminals.

The removal of the cable will work for pre '96 models but the later ones have to have the codes removed with a scanner. Auto Zone will do it for free.

You may need a new fuel cap. I have a Ranger and the thing has gone bad twice. I think they are only about $10-$15 at autozone.

Hey Edward==Go to AUTOZONE.COM nd install your vehicle then go to REPAIR INFO then to REPAIR GUIDES then to CHASSIS WIRING then to WIRING DIAGRAMS. Then select the proper diagram probably figure 11 and it may help you . GoodluckJoe

I WOULD TRY TO RENT A OBE READER TO DIEGNOSE THE PROBLEM BEFORE I GOT INTO GUESSING WHICH PART I WOULD NEED,IT COULD GET VERY EXSPENCIVE...

Disconnect the neg battery cabl;e for 30 seconds. If it comes back on, take it to auto zone and have the codes read for free.
