Garvin Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 The maintenance light makes no difference if you have an O2 or not, it's just a timer. All you have to do is find the box under the dash and yank it and the light will go out. The other option is to pull the bulb from the dash.

Zebvance Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I was told that it turns on when its time to replace your o2 sensor. How would you reset it if that's the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't a Check Engine light, it's nothing but a reminder to replace the O2 sensor. The factory says to replace the light/timer and that it isn't serviceable, but people have figured out how to reset it if you wish to retain it. To the OP -- how does your engine run with no oxygen sensor? And by that, I don't mean "does it run well or badly." I don't think the system will function with no oxygen sensor. (Or does it default to open loop mode and you're just running a rich mix all the time?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garvin Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 The ECU only reads the O2 sensor in closed loop so you are right, it will default to open loop and run rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try one inch of black electrical tape. Cover over the offending light. Problem solved. :laughin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
