check engine light reset

[dank91]

i installed an aftermarket boost gauge and after i added the t-bar connector the line to my gauge broke causing my check engine light to come on the car to not upshift, well i fixed the vacume line problem so the tranny is fine. how do i reset the check engine light im sick of looking at it.

when we were playing around with a different kind of mas on my 97 gs-t, we pulled the wire with the car running to see if it would run without the signal from the mas. well, it didn't & it tripped a cel. all i did was unhook the battery for 2 minutes (that way your stereo doesn't lose it's code) and rehooked the battery up. the cel was gone.

just unplug your batterys negative for about a hour or go to autozone. they can erase it for free but if u choose to unhook the battery it resets everthing including the anti theft on the stock headunit but if youve got the code your fine. i recommend trying autozone first.

unplug the batter for 5 minutes or 30 seconds while stepping on the brake

What does stepping on the brake have anything to do with it? Just disco your battery for like 30 seconds and put it back on and the CEL will be gone.
