Sir totally informative, the car dealers have a hold on you when they tell you they can not reset unless they 1. do a diagnostic and hit you with 150.00 and 2. fix the problem and hit you with parts and huge labor costs. If I can fix the problem myself I would rather and now I can reset engine light. And if I was paying attention correctly, if I didnt fix the problem the check engine light will come back on. Loved this video again thank you so much

Hi, You mentioned the gas cap could be loose, but, if you've got a gas cap issue and it's good and tight, check the gas cap O ring. On an older car you may find a slight crack in the O ring. This is enough to keep the gas cap from properly sealing which causes the Check Engine light to come on. This happened to my girlfriends car. The Toyota dealer didn't have an O ring in stock, so I bought a new gas cap and the problem was solved. Regards, Tom

Great video, my friend. I had a P0440 code pop up right after a fuel stop. I removed and tightened the fuel cap but the check engine light remained. I followed your steps and remove the negative cable from the battery, waited 30 seconds while I turned on the lights to discharge any remaining energy... And sure enough as soon as I reconnected the negative cable to the battery, the check engine light was cleared. Thank you. 💯

Ever since the invention of the heck engine light, we've done the disconnect battery reset. It worked almost every time on every vehicle, however, it doesn't fix sensors if they are bad, just resets the light...if the light is because of a bad sensor the light will come back on. Back in the old days you could get away with the reset if you needed an emissions test. (Light on fails immediately) but newer vehicles (and tests) can tell when scanned that your computer has been flashed (reset) its best just to get it scanned and fix the problem.

Some FYI.. Check engine light is designed to indicate a problem within the vehicles engine/tranny electrical systems. The way to erase the light by normal standards, is to check for the error code, fix or replace whatever electrical component is bad. Of course, and a general rule of thumb, is to disconnect the battery when ANY electrical repair is going to be done. By doing this, the check engine light goes out bcuz computer will sense the repair And, the code which would otherwise by All means stay on the computers memory will also be erased. Of course all codes are erased by this process, but good codes that the computer uses to monitor engines electrical system will return after some driving. Reason I take the time to post this info, is bcuz many believe that erasing the check-engine light will fool the inspector when the time for vehicles inspection is due. It is EASY to erase the check-Engine light, but the error code (if any) remains in memory and DMV's inspection computer will get it from the vehicles computer. If that happens, your vehicle will be FAILED. Free is a nice word... Proper, is a better one.

If you're doing this trying to pass a state inspection, know that while the check engine light doesn't illuminate any more, the "MONITOR NOT READY" (a test to see if the EGR or whatever actually works) will continue. You have to drive the car a significant distance to allow the system to actually check if everything is kosher. To speed the process of getting the monitor not ready codes to go away, google for "drive cycle" for your specific model of car to tell you what to do to activate the tests as soon as possible.

That is exactly what happened to me when I used the OBD2 land torque to reset an error code for a leaking gas cap. When I returned to have the vehicle re-inspected the inspector told me that the system was showing as not ready. I am still looking for resources on how to do the drive cycle thing to get rid of the not ready status. This is a 2013 Ford Explorer.

It went into hybrid safety mode WHILE I was driving on the highway in the rain after work. I tried almost everything before I paid a crap ton and decided to use the scanner method. My car is apparently under the TXXM warranty so hopefully I won't have to pay anything out of pocket. Update- I got rid of the crap late October of 2022 for a Ford Mustang Ecoboost Convertible

I've been an automotive technician for over 40 years, and you never clear a check engine light. The monitors are all run, and clearing the light clears the monitors. Causing you to fail emissions until they all relearn. Could take several days or even weeks. The proper way to clear light is to find the cause of the issue and the light will go out on its own. Usually in 1 day of normal driving.

Car is maybe worth 375.00 so don't want to pit anymore money in it. Same code P0441 has been a thorn for years. Last year ended up buying a new factory gas cap.

Second comment because the first had a link in it. If you own any Chrysler vehicle since 1988 you can cycle the key. Cycle the key without going as far as the start 3 times. On-off on-off on-off then on then leave it on but not started. Wait for a few seconds. The flashing light is your fault codes. flash flash pause flash flash flash flash is code 24. Or Flash pause Flash Flash is code 12 which is battery was disconnected. All cars should have this. It will just keep cycling through your codes until you turn it off.

If the light triggers again that means you have still a problem you have to take care of, but if it was just a loose gas cap then light should stay off.

I hope you’re still offering advice. I ran across your clear check engine light video but I don’t think it addressed the actual problem I’m having. I live on the the west coast and require emission checks. I disconnected the positive cable for over a minute and it cleared the light but when I went to get it emission checked, it had sensor not ready failures. The technician told me that the only way to clear those codes is to drive the car for 100 - 500 miles. Will this device clear those hidden codes or is there another way? I browsed through some of your other videos. Brilliant stuff.

Short answer, no. When your battery is disconnected/codes are cleared, all of your modules basically reset. Your car has to go through a "drive cycle" before all of the modules will "wake up". If these modules are still "asleep", or if you have any DTC's stored, you will normally fail an emissions test. Thus, if you make a repair that requires codes to be cleared, you should allow a few days of normal driving before going to get tested.

Or if you can't wait you can go to Harbor Freight and buy one. If you have a check engine code, it is recommended to fix the problem ASAP, for if you don't, it can lead to bigger problems. Most sensors in cars go bad and is an easy fix. You can pick up sensors at your local Auto Zone store. If you need to get your car inspected, when you clear codes,they will not give you an inspection sticker unless you drive a few hundred miles after you clear the codes. So make sure if you need to get your car inspected, do that well in advance otherwise you will not get an inspection sticker.

Yah...but at $50. To $780 a piece for these plastic Fucken sensors, you run put of money fast...and most generally replacing these Fucken sensors doesn't " fix" the problem, only compounds it.

Yes, you can get the free version in the play store, but you need to buy a cheap 10 dollar Elm327 device to pair with the app and is done through bluetooth. It reads codes, provides live data (I use it to monitor my water temp) and clears the codes, fix problem before clearing the codes, hope this helped. I use this one and it's been working for 4 yrs. and I use it every day. Costs 7 bucks, was $13.00 when I bought it 4 yrs ago. Good luck. www.walmart.com/ip/Newest-ELM327-V2-1-OBD2-CAN-BUS-Bluetooth-or-WIFI-Car-Auto-Diagnostic-Interface-Scanner/350281753?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=12917&adid=22222222227092531678&wmlspartner=wmtlabs&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=214144097917&wl4=pla-347703678217&wl5=9010454&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=117429984&wl11=online&wl12=350281753&wl13=&veh=sem

I too always stand and watch what their actually repairing and always ask for the replaced parts because if they really needed to be replaced they wont have any reason not to give them to you. I also like you pay with a credit card so if their is still an issue I can have the credit card hold and even charge back the bill until they actually fix it right. If their honest they wont mind you watching if they know you.
