Re: Check engine light
I would say its electrical if your car is running fine.
Sometimes an alternator going out makes everything go crazy.

Re: Check engine light
Sounds like your speed sensor in the trans went bad

 The check engine light is probably because the EEC is not seeing vehicle speed input.

Re: Check engine light
Have you pulled a code yet? You can swing by some time and I'll do it for you or you can just hit up AutoZone and they can do it too. At least with that you can maybe find somewhere to start.
Also, yank off the battery cable for about 15 minutes. Let the computer and car reset and then crank it back up. I swear these things are like computers and a fair portion of problems can be fixed with a little "reboot". |
