Is it a yellow check engine light or a red service light? yellow check light you should be able to clear, red service you cant.

Yellow. This is the first time my scanner hasn't been able to detect something. I've used it on all sorts of cars. Foreign and domestic.

This isn't mine. Light has been on awhile so I'm told. Runs and drives fine. PS I love the way these drive. I'm just scared of the electrical system. Plus cooling system seems way better. For some reason feels way smoother and more powerful.
