How Do I shut the check engine light off in a 2000 Mazda B3000?

Answer 1

YOU SHOULD GET THE VEHICLES COMPUTER SCANNED AND CHECK FOR ANY PROBLEMS AS WELL AS CODES AND THEN YOU WILL HAVE A GOOD IDEA ON WHAT THE PROBLEM TRULY IS.

TRY FINDING AN INDEPENDENT SHOP INSTEAD OF THE DEALER OR A CHAIN STORE BECAUSE YOU WILL BE OVERALL MORE PLEASED WITH THE FINDINGS AND THE SERVICE.

Answer 2

Have the "codes pulled" at shop.. Auto Zone does it for free or buy a scanner at wal-mart, your local auto parts store, online..
The service industry calls the Check Engine light on your dash an "MIL" or Malfunction Indicator Light. It shows three different types of signals. Occasional flashes show momentary malfunctions. It stays on if the problem is of a more serious nature, affecting the emissions output or safety of the vehicle. A constantly flashing MIL is a sign of a major problem which can cause serious damage if the engine is not stopped immediately. In all cases a "freeze frame" of all sensor readings at the time is recorded in the central computer of the vehicle.
Hard failure signals caused by serious problems will cause the MIL to stay on any time the car is running until the problem is repaired and the MIL reset. Intermittent failures cause the MIL to light momentarily and they often go out before the problem is located. The freeze frame of the car's condition captured in the computer at the time of the malfunction can be very valuable in diagnosing these intermittent problems. However, in some cases if the car completes three driving cycles without a re-occurrence of the problem, the freeze frame will be erased.
OBD-II signals are most often sought in response to a "Check Engine Light" appearing on the dashboard or driveability problems experienced with the vehicle. The data provided by OBD-II can often pinpoint the specific component that has malfunctioned.
1988, the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) set a standard connector plug and set of diagnostic test signals. The EPA adapted most of their standards from the SAE on-board diagnostic programs and recommendations. OBD-II is an expanded set of standards and practices developed by SAE and adopted by the EPA and CARB (California Air Resources Board) for implementation by January 1, 1996.
All cars built since January 1, 1996 have OBD-II systems. Manufacturers started incorporating OBD-II in various models as early as 1994.

Answer 3

at times the verify engine gentle will come on notwithstanding if it's time to alter the oil. Even once you substitute it you will desire to reset it. I also have a Toyota Tundra and if the Camry is something like it interior the reset codes, you may carry down the odometer reset. once you have completed that proceed retaining it down and turn the main important on. only turn it to the accessory place. you will desire to attend some seconds, after the beeping stops from the main important being grew to become. Then turn it off and initiate off the motor vehicle. If that is your situation, that is going to be fastened.

Answer 4

You can go to any parts store and let them use their scan tool to read the codes off of your trucks computer to find out what needs fixed or you can just disconnect your negative battery cable for 15 Min's and this should just erase your trucks computer. If you do this and the light comes back on with in the next 200 miles you have a problem and you should get it checked out.

Answer 5

get your engine checked obviously something is wrong if not its wiring and it will have to be rewired if your car runs ignore it LOL some cars if you dont have your GAS CAP ON CORRECTLY a check engine light will come on check that also good luck

Answer 8

You have to find someone that has one of those computer scanners. Or knows enough about that type of vehicle that can just turn it off.
