Heading to a funeral. It's hard saying goodbye, however briefly, to people we love.
I'm not sure what happened but a couple weeks ago I noticed it had Yankeegirl listed as deleting her account. :(
Hope your OK x

Sue, lol.

Nah, wouldn't be worth it. Actually, if I take it back to my mechanic, he might just fix it for free. He's a nice guy to deal with...I just don't wanna deal with waiting at the garage for my car.

My check engine light came on again...and it just came back from the garage. Not happy. :|

It could be that they didn't reset the ECU so it's still throwing the old code. I'd suggest pulling the alternator fuse and disconnecting the battery for 30 mins (shouldn't even need that long, but it's easier to disconnect and simply watch a TV show then reconnect)

If it comes back on after that then it's a legit code. I'll check to see if your ECU throws codes at you or if you need a reader.

Dude...I don't even know where the alternator fuse would be. >.>

I was just gonna take it to an Auto Zone to have a free computer diagnostic (I like free :p) and then if it's the same code as before, I'll take it to my mechanic and be all 'hey...I thought you took care of this...'.

In your fuse box. :p

Disconnecting the negative terminal on the battery should be enough in all honesty. I just like to pull fuses to make sure.

Forgetting to reset is easy to do, especially for smaller maintenance items.
