Well today I was being a dumbass and got stuck in some dirt. We got the front left tire stuck in some dirt and with a little bit of help we got the car out. After I got the car out i noticed my service engine soon light on. Anyone know what this might be? i didnt hit anything except for some dirt. Is there anything i can do to fix the service light? thanks for any help cause i need some asap.

 

You said you got stuck in some dirt rite? how deep? Try checking your O2 sensor after the cat.

 

yea like the tires were stuck in the dirt and they spun. Where is this O2 sensor?

 

look under the car and check if you see any wires hanging. After the Cat. in the middle of the car. If you don't see anything, Just reset the ECU by disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery for 1 min and then reconnecting it. See if the light comes on again.

 

would resetting the ecu solve the problem? does anyone think dirt got into the engine or something?

 

go to autozone and get the code pulled

 

if you reset the ECU then the light will go off..... but it will most likely come right back on..... like "inrpce" said go to autozone and have them pull the code....
