    The Check Engine light needs a scan tool to turn off the light to erase the code set by the O2 sensor signal or heater circuit failure.
    To reset the maintainence reminder light turn off the engine press and hold down the "reset" button on the instrument cluster, turn the ignition key to on (not engine running) and keep the reset button held down for ten to fifteen seconds and then release.
