If you have the controls on your steering wheel than all you have to do is push the button with the little gas pump logo on it until engine oil life and the % come up on the little screen, then hold down the arrow button (lower right) for 5 or so seconds and it will say oil life reset and it will go back to 100% and it wont ding at you anymore.
Another method:
To reset the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message, turn the ignition key to RUN with the engine off. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal three times within five seconds. If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message flashes for five seconds, the system is reset.
That REQUIRES an ENGINE SCANNER to do that.
Yes but, if the light is flashing no.

It might be that you did not tighten the gas cap enough.
It is on because the ECU has detected a problem with the emissions system.
You use a scan tool after repairing the cause of the code that turned the light on.
You can buy the check engine computer and the book comes with it. I know, I bought one. When your check engine light comes on, you plug it in and check the engine and it will give you the code and you look in the book for that code and it gives you the answer.
It will run, But not right and the check engine light will come on. It needs the converter.
no it doesnt
you need an obdII scanner to read codes. either that or one of the many after market programmers.
Normally a flashing check engine light means you have a misfire. Do not ignore this as an engine misfire will damage the O2 sensor and the catalytic converter which are very expensive to replace. Have this repaired immediately.
