Re: emissions maintenance light
This may sound stupid but you simply unplug the two connectors going into
the timer module for it under he dash in the area of the steering column and
plug them together eliminating the timer. It can't be reset and the official
way was to replace the timer.

The 91 XJ went to the MOPAR computer, best I recall. That had a real,
honest to goodness check engine light with stored codes. The old
Renix was just capable of running the engine and fuel system - no
stored codes (or codes off any type, for that matter). The "Check"
light was simply a timer that set the light at 80,000 miles, period.
You were supposed to replace the cat and/or the O2 sensor then.
Useless bit of EPA compliance, nothing more.
