Default How to clear a check engine light

My son has a 2002 F150 that is maintained on a regular basis and is in excellent running condition.


That said, the truck's 'check engine' light started coming on last week and now stays on full time.


Looking for information/help in getting the light to turn off.


Thanks !

Go to an Auto Zone and have the OBD II codes read, look up the relevant faults, repair the faults, erase the codes. Alternatively, buy an OBD II code reader, read, repair, and erase.
