So after having my car for just over 2 years...and for the first time...the FIRST TIME...my check engine light went on frown.gif Have no clue of what happened either. I was driving down a side road, takin her easy and it went off. Im gonna hook her up to a scanner tomorrow and see what the code is/how to clear it. Hope its nothing thats gonna cost me $. Ive already spent enough $ on my car in the last month.

Did your car die?

no..runs fine...just the engine light went on for no reason.

My car did the same thing last fall, it's just an O2 sensor and when you hook it up you can just clear it

my O2 is fine, i replaced it when i put my headers in about 7 or 8 months ago

it very well might not be anything, ive had mine go on all of a sudden and then after tightening the gas cap the light all of a sudden go out. good luck with whatever it is though.

I tightened my gas cap no more than 2 min b4 the light went on. I filled up, put the gas cap back on, tightened it down untill it clicked 4 times, then i drove off...2 min later..light goes on.

I also checked to see if it was a dummy code by cycling the key 3 times...still didnt clear. I dunno if that works for OBD1 cars or just OBD2 cars. Oh well..im not driving any where tonight.
