Are you able to reset the code so the check engine light goes off (after correcting the code causing the issue)?

Yes you can clear the code once the issue is fixed or clear it until the light comes back on after driving it around.

If you have the proper software and this device then you can reset the codes. If the problem still exists then the code(s) will come back.

If the MAF is giving you a check light on the dash from being dirty than yes I would disconnect to reset the ECU. Other than that it depends on the make and model whether it's recommended. Disconnecting could never hurt though.

Yes it has the ability to reset the codes. I did that for my O2 sensor error code. But if you dont deal with the reason for the error, the code will come up again.

it will clear error codes for a time. if the problem isnt fixed the lights will come back on shortly. the lights are also not the driving force behind failing inspections if that is where you are going.

ABS maybe. SRS no. It will only reset the check engine light warnings from OBDII. Some ABS warnings are from OBD sensors. But they will come right back if the sensors are still not working.

Try replacing the switch. It sounds like the circuit is closed which is causing the lights to be on continuously.It is a simple operation and much cheaper than taking it to the dealership.

You still have to remove the egr delete kit but this does remove the code error on dash

You can see the codes with the free version, but to erase the codes and turn off the Check Engine Light, you need to pay for the"Pro" upgrade. But the fellow has to make money for his App somehow.

As long as it plugs in.And it should it will tell you the code and reset it

Any ABS/SRS lights that I know of can not be reset. When those lights come on that means there's a problem with that system. And I don't believe the light will turn off till you fix the problem.

Did you change the code? If not, take the battery out and roll it in your hands. Replace and try again.

Yes, the battery appears to be working now and I am seeing the goodbye image when I shut off my ignition. It looks like the same unit I sent back. How did you fix it?
1322178
Yes! So long as your car is compatible with the machine (obd2), it'll clear the check engine light. If you don't fix the problem, the car will simply turn it back on when it runs the next diagnostic check.

clearing the code doesnt fix any problem it just resets the computer. you need to see a mechanic.

Altho I haven't used this scanner to reset engine codes, the literature says that it will.If it doesn't, it is still a nice unit and very helpful.JM2C

Yes. The error codes have been saved within the onboard computer. By connecting the scanner, then turning the ignition key to its normal position, the scanner will read those stored error codes. You will not turn the ignition key far enough to try and start your car. For example, in one case, I had a code to replace a $71 part which I did myself. A professional at a garage said I needed a new engine - estimated labor and parts of $6,000.

yes download book from online and follow reprogramming directions... program reset/programming button is the red light indicator on your vehicle
