How to Reset the Engine Warning Light on a Ford Kuga?

Model: Ford Kuga C394, MK 1 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Warning light – error code

As seen in the video, the Engine warning light on the Ford Kuga may illuminate and start flashing. This could be due to a malfunction in the fuel system: low-quality fuel or air in the fuel line can create an incorrect air-fuel mixture and trigger the warning light. However, there can be other reasons for an illuminated engine light: low engine oil level or malfunctioning ignition system components. The light can only be turned off using a diagnostic tester with the engine off but the key in position 1. Follow the diagnostic instructions to clear the warning lights.
