The engen light came on in the car after I power washed it I took it to the local advanced auto and they hooked it up It said o2 sencer and cam position sencer. so I changed the o2 first its cheeper well come to find out there was two of them and i some how unpluged #bank 2 so i hook it up and take the negitive off the battery for an hour or so . start it up sure the light stays off till the second time I start it .about 5 min after start it comes back on.I take it back and it says the same thing. DO I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM RESET IT????????
RESETTING IT WONT FIX IT!!!!! When you disconnected the negative from the battery, that's exactly what you did - you reset it. When you turn your car on, it scans all the sensors to see if there is a problem. In your case, it sees a problem, so the check engine light comes back on. If you go somewhere and pay to get the check engine light reset, the same thing is going to happen. What you need to do instead is get the problem fixed (whatever they said the problem was)
In the final analysis we just get one day at a time. I enjoyed the trip and agree with the conclusion. Good write.
i own a repair shop,and this is the obd-1 system,on this car and you cant remove the battery cable and erase the trouble code on these ,you can take it by any auto zone and have them scan it and they can erase the light for you free of charge,if it comes back on then then you have something else wrong with it,good luck i hope this help,s.
