I'm taking my car to be evaluated for trade in and the check engine light is stuck on. Acura says it will go away eventually (reset itself) as everything has checked out with the electrical system.

Can someone tell me what fuse will get rid of that display?

Thanks!

 

The CEL should go away after 3 cold starts.

 

OK just started it again...was off for 1 hour. I'll try it again at 4:30

 

Try disconnecting your battery, then push on your brake pedal a few times. Then re-connect the battery. This should reset all the codes, unless there's a problem.

 

Also if all else fails just pull the No. 13 fuse.

To answer your first question.

 

ah kewl thanks!

 

I pulled 13 and it made no difference (all lights still came on and all dinging etc).

 

This was the No. 13 fuse on the passenger side fuse panel?

Pulling it out for 1 minute and plugging it back in should do.

 

drivers side...I'll try the other one.

 

That did it! Many,many thanks!!!

 

Ah ok.

I should of said passenger side from the start.

 

Man, that's good to know.

 

Figures... lucky number 13
