What errors are you getting?

sharkm87 Oct 10, 2008 10:08 AM
do you have taktrix

Go to your local auto parts store and check out their OBD-II scanner. Read what the codes are and then reset them from the tool.

Autozone for free, or if you have tactrix cable you can use EVOscan or OBDII software to scan and reset codes...

If you erase the codes the cel will erase too unless it came back. What scanner do you have?

true, but at autozone the are not allowed to delete the codes. it will comeback either way though even if you do erase it. i would just find out what codes are being thrown, then work on getting them fixed
