kenc Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Greetings, I've lurked here a while but this is my first post. The check engine light came on in my daughters 92 ES300 a day after an oil change. The previous owner of this car said (and I'm getting this third hand) that there is a button in or around the glovebox to clear this situation and he indicated it was related to an oil change. I have never heard of this. Could someone validate or explain that to me? The other part of the question is...in general, is there a way to clear the check engine light on this car or must I take it in. I simply want to clear it to see if it comes on again. Thank you in advance. Ken C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you in advance. Ken C. Disconnect the neg. battery terminal for a few minutes and reconnect. This resets the ecu to factory defaults. If the cel comes on again get the codes pulled and we will be happy to help you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
