SOURCE: service engine soon light

The light comes on when the car's computer detects that something has an incorrect reading that is sending that incorrect reading from the sensing unit to the computer.

Here's how i would attempt to solve it. To reset an service engine soon light take the positive terminal off of the battery and let it drain all the voltage and currents in your vehicle. Like try turning on your radio and turning your car over while the positive terminal is taken off of the battery terminal.

I would say let it sit for atleast 15 minutes then put it back on and start the car back up. If the light still comes back one then you have a small problem that could be many different little things

Check to see that your gas cap isn't worn out and still keeping a seal so when you take it off you should hear air escaping from it

Could be a filter in your fuel tank.

Could be o2 sensors

The list could go on, but to make sure before you start spending a huge amounts of money go to a shop and get them to plug in a scanner into your car to see what exactly the code is.

Good luck bud!

This is most likely the O2 Sensor however, that light may also come on for a vacum leak or anyone of a number of other sensors. Take the vehicle to Auto Zone and ask them to use a code reader on it and tell you what the code is for. If the code is for O2 sensor as I suspect the part will cost about $40 and take maybe 20 minutes to replace your self. ($40 for part + 5 to 10 for the special socket) If it shows anything else you may want to take it to a mechanic to have the vehicle diagnosed.

2005 Nissan Quest ABS, TCS, Brake, SLIP, Service Engine Soon lights are on and speedometer and odometer are not working

Retrieve codes from the ECM and report it is possible that the codes are related and could be something like speed sensor of some sort.

Service engine soon, TCS off, SLIP

The oil change wouldn't cause this problem. Just in-case, check the engine oil level.

There are many emission sensors in the car that will make the engine light come ON. Best way to find out what's going on is to have an auto-parts store hook up a engine code reader and tell you what the code means. Most auto-part store will do this for free.

The light "service engine soon" turn on in a nissan quest 2000 I read the manual but i'm not sure about if it is a big problem or not or if Is it a expensive problem ?

The service engine light on is not a big deal. you just aren't meeting emissions right now.

Go to Autozone and have them run a free scan to get fault codes.

Just remember this - do not ever change the knock sensor even if it gives a fault code. It is in the middle of the engine and a waste of $600 for no improvement. It will never affect your engine performance, good or bad.

report back with code here or on Villager- Quest website I gave you.
