I replaced my plugs and wires after getting a bad plug (only 56k) and was wondering if there is a way I can reset the computer myself so my LR will pass inspection.

I went to Advance Auto Parts but their device wouldn't reset the computer. I'm out of warranty so I can't go to the dealer.

Any help is appreciated!!!!

 

Have you tried disconnecting the ground from the battery and standing on the brake pedal for a few seconds (to drain any capacitance in the system)?

 

Thanks! That got the light to go off. But will that reset the system so that an error code won't show?

 

That is a first for me. First unhooking the battery will cause the ECU to start loosing it memory, hence it will have to start relearning your driving habites.
Standing on the brake pedal, in 30 years as a service manager, I have never heard that one before, but it does sound as if it worked.
If the CEL is off, the fault is gone. As for the plug failing, your first tune up is at 60K so this is not unusual to have a plug fail.

Hey, whatever works right? At least I didn't suggest the other way (honk the horn and run around the car 3 times chanting the land rover theme song).
