How to reset check engine light ?

There are three ways to reset a check engine light. 

1. Disconnect the battery, wait approximately 30 minutes, reconnect the battery. This resets the cars computer which also reset the check engine light. On newer OBD (on-board diagnostic) compliant vehicles this usually does not work. See step 2. 

2. Reset using an OBD II reader. When you hook an OBD II code reader up to your vehicle, you can reset the computer using the code reader. 


3. Fixing the problem. Generally the check engine light comes on for a reason. Usually it is emission related (sensors, gas cap) or electrical (faulty wiring). In this case the way to reset the check engine light is to fix the problem.
This details will help.
Thanks.

READING CODES

Reading the control module memory is one of the first steps in OBD II system diagnostics. This step should be initially performed to determine the general nature of the fault. Subsequent readings will determine if the fault has been cleared.

Reading codes can be performed using a generic scan tool, or the vehicle manufacturer's specific tester to read the control module memory.

To read the fault codes, connect the scan tool or tester according to the manufacturer's instructions. Follow the manufacturer's specified procedure for reading the codes.

CLEARING CODES

Control module reset procedures are a very important part of OBD II system diagnostics. This step should be done at the end of any fault code repair and at the end of any driveability repair.

Clearing codes can be performed by any of the methods listed below:

Clear the control module memory with a Generic Scan Tool (GST)

Clear the control module memory with the vehicle manufacturer's specific tester

Turn the ignition OFF and disconnect the negative battery cable for at least 1 minute.

Removing the negative battery cable may cause other systems in the vehicle to lose their memory. Prior to removing the cable, ensure you have the proper reset codes for radios and alarms.

The MIL may also be de-activated for some codes if the vehicle completes 3 consecutive trips without a fault detected with vehicle conditions similar to those present during the fault.
