SOURCE: Service Engine Soon light reset.

The Service Engine Soon light comes only when the engine computer control unit (called the PCM) senses a fault in the electronic controls of the engine and/or the emission system, it is not related to the oil change, there are about 200 possible faults that turn the light on, to know what has developed a problem you must have the system tested, this is called an OBD2 fault code test, Kragen and Autozone parts stores do this testing for free.


Testimonial: "Thanks! I guess the person that told me it was an oil change light was not quite up to speed. I'm off to AutoZone."
