Let's say the check engine light comes on in your 2009 Ford Escape, and you've fixed the issue. You might have assumed that the light would reset itself after the problem is fixed, but that is not the case for some vehicles. If you need to reset the check engine light in your Escape, there are a couple of methods you can try. One option is to use an OBD II scanner tool, which you can connect to the OBD port typically found below the steering wheel on the left side. Follow the instructions on the tool to reset the light. Another method is to turn the ignition to the ON position and then press down on the brake and accelerator pedals for 30 seconds.
