Reset '02 Liberty Check Engine Light
The Check Engine light popped on last night in my '02 Liberty. Upon
checking, the gas cap was loose, which apparently can cause this to
happen (why?). Anyway, how does one go about resetting the durn light
so that I know whether that was the real problem or not? Disconnect the
battery for a while?
Thanks,
K.

Re: Reset '02 Liberty Check Engine Light
The computer expects a certain amount of pressure in the fuel system for
emission reason I believe.
Not sure how to reset the light, sorry. You might call the dealer.

Re: Reset '02 Liberty Check Engine Light
I can reset my XJ by disconnecting the battery, or after I start my Jeep
enough times with no problems the light automatically turns off. Keeping in
mind mine is an XJ.

Re: Reset '02 Liberty Check Engine Light
Go to Autozone or somewhere else that does free scans, have them scan it,
tell you the code, then clear it.
