Best Answer

You will need an OBD2 scan tool or code checker to read the code. There is no shortcut on resetting the lamp. It's coming on for a reason. Find out which code is setting, repair the condition and then clear the code. Most of the time, once the repair is made, the vehicle will need to make two or three "trips" without a failure before the lamp will reset. Russtech67
