Three Ways to Turn Off the Engine Warning Light

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Warning light – error code

Video tutorial

In this video, you will see three ways to turn off the engine warning light. Before turning off the light, ensure you have resolved the issue that caused the engine light to illuminate; otherwise, you would be doing something not only unnecessary but also dangerous.

The first method is to use an OBD11 reader from the EOBD socket of your vehicle: after reading the code and fixing the problem, you can clear the error code. Consequently, the light will also turn off. The second method is to disconnect the negative terminals of the battery.

Reconnecting them will reset the control unit, but this method has the disadvantage that you will need to re-enter the radio code, all stored stations, and reset the date and time. The last method is very simple and takes only a few seconds: in the fuse box, locate the one for the ECU (on some cars, it is called ECM), briefly remove the fuse, and then put it back in place.

This will turn off the light.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
