Unhappy Motor mounts/emergency brakes/check engine

So my motor mounts need to get replaced but now my check engine light came on. Would the motor mounts trigger the check engine light?


My emergency brakes also need to get replaced but i cant stop the beeping on the dashboard. Is there a way that i can hard reset until i am able to do the brakes? Might this be trigger the check engine?

No, neither mounts nor the mount control system will trigger the MIL.

It's highly unlikely that your parking brake shoes are bad. The beeping for the p-brake is probably caused by a bad/stuck p-brake switch. (A closed circuit gives the indication that p-brake lever is up).

The switch could also be loose so that p-brake lever is not compressing the switch plunger when lowered.

Damn that does sound annoying. You can try pulling the battery for a few minutes. I don't know if there is a fuse for that.

pop out the cup holder, it takes 10 seconds to do. underneath you will see the button that the ebrake presses to tell the dash its still on, check to see if the button is stuck or something
