Turn off Check Engine Light

Just a quick question: How do I turn the check engine light off on an 02 Ranger after I make the necessary repairs?

Some codes need to be erased with and OBDII reader. You might also be able to reset by disconnecting your battery for about a minute.

disconnect negative side of battery, for a minute...walmart has an odb2 reader for about 90 bucks, i got one last year, helps out, my check engine light came on, i read the code, saw that i needed a lower bank oxygen sensor, i ordered the part put it in myself got rid of the light and not spending money on someone diagnosing it, plus you can erase codes as well.
