Maint Reqrd light
Ive got a 93 YJ wrangler and the Maint Required light is on.
Ive been told its because of the O2 sensor but its been changed and the computer has not been reset. I have a printout of the diag. codes and did the on, off, on, off, on thing with the ingnition and it gave no significant codes, so I know all is fine. How do you get the light to go out?? Ive disconnected the battery (for a long time, over night), I even took it to the local jeep dealer and they wanted to charge me 1/2hr (~ $50) labor charge just to hook it up the their computer and clear it, I know that might take 5 min. and thats if they have a problem. Any Ideas??? Thanks, Rich |

The light is turned on at approx 82,500 miles to tell you it's time to replace the O2. Resetting the maintenance lamp mileage counter must be done with a DRB II. I hear some aftermarket scanners can do it, but I have no experience with them. Or you can take the bulb out and throw it away. > >Thanks, >Rich |

The timer module is under the dash on the right side of the steering
column under the cruise module if you have one. It can be unplugged.

I ran into the same thing, not at a multiple of 82,500 miles, either, although it is possible that he odometer was messed with before I got this Jeep. Note that the O2 sensor had just been replaced about a month prior. Anyway, I pulled the bulb (it is a grain of wheat type) and put it accross 120 volts AC, just to blow the filiment, and put it back. That way I can always plede innocent with the smog Nazis.
