Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Trucks / July 2006Maintenance required light
I got a 92' Power Ram 150. Coming home today the maintenance required light came on. Nothen seems to be wrong, everything works fine. Is this light set to come on every so many miles. Mine has a little over 121K. Do you need a scan tool to turn it off? If so i'll take it to autozone or somewheres. Thanks, Scott >I got a 92' Power Ram 150.

It monitored nothing and was timer set. Its only purpose was to sucker you into the dealership thinking you had engine problems. If you want to go along with their crap and pay a tech to reset it fine, but it will come back on in the future for more of your money. It won't come back on if you remove it. beekeep > >> >In article > >> ><1153519688.732450.265110@m79g2000cwm.googlegroups.com>, [quoted text clipped - 36 lines] > Its > only purpose was to sucker you into the dealership <snip> When a maintenance interval light shows up on a dash board, it's by direction of the EPA.

Its kinda like those "DO NOT REMOVE UNDER PENALTY OF LAW" stickers on the bottom of furniture. When the sticker police come by my house they're gonna be pissed! Apparently the maintenance required police frequent your neighborhood. Around here we have state inspections that don't include an OBDII scan (the inspections are a waste of time...)

You mean the labels found on mattresses and pillows? > Apparently the maintenance required police frequent your neighborhood. > Around here we have state inspections that don't include an OBDII scan > (the inspections are a waste of time...) By what stretch is a 92 Dodge pick up OBD2 compliant? (relevance?) My comments were directed at Beebrains comment that the MR light is some deep dark conspiracy by the dealerships/manufacturer. And with all the experts here, no one knew that (and it's been that way since 1990) the MR light is extinguished via scan tool, not by poking something under the dash with a toothpick or changing a 9 volt battery. >> > When a maintenance interval light shows up on a dash board, it's >> > by direction of the EPA.

Hey a.shole, I drive a '92 dodge and it doesn't have a maintenance required light. The dodge I owned before this one did have a maintenance required light which was reset by a little box near the steering column. beekeep > Hey a.shole, I drive a '92 dodge and it doesn't have a maintenance required > light. I'm happy for you. Now please point out where I said that all Dodges had maintenance required lights. Also, if you can figure out how to open the original post, explain the discrepancy between your truck and the original posters. > The dodge I owned before this one did have a maintenance required light which > was reset by a little box near the steering column. All this means is that you confuse easily. You bitch when the mechanic doesn't know his job. You bitch when the mechanic does know his job. I think you just like to bitch. >> Hey a.shole, I drive a '92 dodge and it doesn't have a maintenance required >> light. [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >I think you just like to bitch. Budd's back! beekeep |
