There are numerous ways to get rid of the SES light. You can do an ECU reset. The easiest way is to remove the negative terminal from the battery for at least 10 hours or so. There are more ways by checking out the sticky in the Technical and Modifications forum. If that doesn't work, you may need to find a place or someone with an ODBII scanner and reader to figure out what is the problem. Hope that helps!!

you could probably just bring it to the dealer.

there's a reason that light is on and i'm sure they would pull the codes for you. especially if you are still under warranty.

Try tightening the gas cap.

Seriously, that is one thing that will make the light come on.

If that's not it, get someone to read the codes and tell you what is wrong. Some auto parts stores will read the codes for you for free. Otherwise take it to the dealer.

Auto Zone scans for free. Could be a million things.
