Check Engine Light?

How do get the service engine soon light to go off?

Also, why do I not have a check engine light?

Dealer told me the light was on because the front 02 senser on the right side needed replaced. When I do this can I reset the system by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes?

I appreciate the reply to my question. Hopefully this will improve my fuel mileage.

I recently had an oil change. A few hours after the oil change, the service engine soon light illumiinated. I took it back to the place where I had the oil change and they said they forgot to clean some area that they should have and perhaps the gunk was blockiing a sensor. The light then turned off. I drove for about a week with no problems, but then the light came on again. I thought it might be a gas cap issue because I had researched and that is a common problem. So, I made sure that the gas cap was tightened and I refilled my tank. I then drove for a day or two (just locally), hoping the light would turn off. Well, today my car briefly stalled and when I restarted it, the light was off! I don't know whether to be happy or concerned. Any help?

Starts good every time but will start to run rough at idle. Runs fine when warm but engine light will come on then off once shut off. Fluids are good, I think the plugs and wires may need a change. It is my girlfriend's vehicle so I do not really drive it all that much. What is your opinion?

Hi. I just stumbled across your web site. I am a single mom and was driving to work this morning and when I was slowing down for a red light, my car just stalled and my battery light came on. It freaked me out, so I hurried, put it in park and restarted my car. It happened again 2-3 times in just a block's radius before getting into the hospital security garage at work. For about a week, when I would stop the idle was acting really funny. It would go up and then way down like it would stop but I just thought it was the cold weather, so I would put it in neutral and just gas it. Now, it's snowing and I am so scared this is going to happen in this snow storm on the way home tonight causing an accident or something. Do you have any idea why this is happening? Of note, the battery has been going dead for the past 6-months or so when I leave to go to work. My dad said it's because I leave my cell phone in my car over night to charge. I've stopped and so far so good but now this! Also, my check engine light came on when my car stalled this a.M. And hasn't shut off. I know my car is old but it still has pretty low mileage for a '00 and no car payment. I know zilch about cars but to renew tags. I would really appreciate any advice you could offer.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope you have a great day.

My dash lights have recently quit working along with certain aspects of my radio/cd player (display, volume, radio). As I was driving home today, my check engine light came on. Might it just need a new battery?

We had those problems also and it turned out to be the cluster gauge. About $500 at Ford to fix it but if it goes out completly your car won't start!
