I was tampering with the wires for a little bit.( i unplugged the miles) but i put it back and the check engine light came on. How do i turn it off. Is there a way to reset it like the way you reset the oil light?



thanks

 

you unplugged the miles? you mean the odometer? can you do that?!?! Just for my own information... why were you tampering with it?? I think you can either disconnect the battery to clear the memory, or have to take it to the dealer... my SVT had the problem yesterday, so I reset that this afternoon by disconnecting the battery. Input anyone?

disconnect the battery for a few seconds. this happened to me a while back n it works if you disconnect it

 

disconnect for more than a few seconds... usually takes about 30 minutes for computer to reset... as far as ive seen anyway...

disconnect the battery? i just unplug the wires on the battery right? the pos and neg wires.

thanks

 

right.... that should do the trick... should being the operative word.

 

Better be care with that odometer. Those things are designed to detect tampering. You have to know what you are doing. (i don't)

 

i just unplugged both of the battery plugs now. going on for about 5 minutes so far, is that long enough?

 

thanks guys 10 minutes unplugged oughta do it.
