Something is not fixed. Though you say you fixed them or had them fixed doesnt mean it is all good. Sometimes defective parts. Unhook the battery for a few min. Then reconnect it. The drive about 30 nonstop miles. The computer will be clear then the problem codes will be stored and the light will come back on. Then re read it

Reset 1999 alero service engine light

Service engine soon light is on indicating a problem with your engine. Take it to somewhere like Autozone (it is free to check code) to see what the code and problem is, then fix the problem or the light would just keep coming on every time till it is fixed.. You can use a scanner to read and reset the light, code.

You must get the engine control computer scanned for fault codes, this is the first thing that must be done before any diagnostics can be done to find the problem that has put the engine in "LIMP" mode.

2008 jeep cherokee hemi engine light its on i brought to fix it and they change 4 sensor and the cadilac converter.

You need to have PCM / ECM - engine computer checked for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes an go from there ! there are hundreds of codes these newer vehicles can set ! I hope these people who changed the sensors an catalytic converter checked codes first ! You never ever just replace parts !!!!!!!! A DTC will lead in a diagnostic direction ! Check Engine Code Scanner Advance Auto Parts

Why does the check engine light keeps coming back on after repairing/replacing secondary air injection system, code P0410?

a lot of times you actually have to drive the vehicle in order for the engine light to reset. sometimes you can have the engine light reset with a scan tool unless a hard-fault code thenone has to do was known as the drive cycle.this could very firm anywheres to 72 150 miles depending on the manufacturer.

When the engine light comes on the engine shuts off or stalls. while driving it never shuts off but it sort of hesitate when engine light comes on. whenthe engine is park and running the check engine light...

your local auto zone can read your code. you will need this code to trouble shoot, as there are many things that can cause this. your toyota is obd1 so call and ask if they can read your code before driving out there in your vehicles condition. most just have obd2 scanners (1996 and newer)

1986 chevy corvette service engine light

the light can be reset by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes, but the light is telling you there is a problem in the electronic controls of the engine, until that problem is fixed the light will continue to come on. Here is how u test the system for the trouble codes that are stored whenever the check engine light comes on. Go to the link for instructions on how to retrieve codes.
