I'm sorry but I don't think you're giving us enough information to work with.

First off, lets start with the problem. What is the problem?

there is no problem besides the fact that the damm light wont go off

But it's not throwing a single code? What are you using to check for codes?

I'd take it to your local auto parts store and have then check it as they should do it for free. Or take it to a mechanic. And if it really is stuck on, you can just remove the bulb from the cluster that way it won't light up. But, then if you really do throw a code, you won't know.

^ Bad advice. WTF

Try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. This should clear the light and all the codes the ecu has stored. Then see if the light comes back on when you reconnect the battery and drive the car around.

Good Advice!! Haha. Yeah do exactly that and see what happens from there. If the light comes back on, then there is definately a code somewhere. Try that and let us know.

You could just go to Auto Zone and have them check it for you. That'll tell you if something is wrong fast, easy and free.

Said i alrdy had codes checked. anyway disconnecting battery worked thanks fellas

 

[steve]

Anyway disconnecting battery worked thanks fellas

For how long?

 

[SidewaysSupra33]

think i disconnected it for like 3min

 

[turbobird14]

if it comes back on there is obviously a CEL its throwin... if the light was shorted on... no matter if you reset your ecu, it will stay on

 

[steve]

think i disconnected it for like 3min

You misunderstood, the question was "for how long" will the CEL stay off since you aren't fixing the problem.

 

[SidewaysSupra33]

what do u mean the light doesnt come on anymore

 

[steve]

what do u mean the light doesnt come on anymore

I think you mean yet.

 

[erald01]

it might come on again if you start driving it, but if it does and the car runs good, i would say no worrie. Mine has been on forever and the car runs like a champ. It might be an o2 sensor, other wise if you have dsm link you can erase it with that, btw autozone will be able to erase it for a few minutes and once you start it again it will come back on.

Whoops, my bad.

steve's asking after you disconnected the battery, how long did the CEL stay off? After you reconnected the battery, how long did it take for the CEL to come back on?

 

[SidewaysSupra33]

whats a cell

 

[turbosax2]

CEL = Check Engine Light

 

[SidewaysSupra33]

thats what i been trying to say it has not come back on

 

[snowborder714]

Well, that's a good thing. Just post back up if it does come back on.
