Check engine light

[cdahlen]

2011 xlt, I've had a cel (O2 sensor) on for a long time. So today finally got around changing it. Now when engine is running, no light, but i noticed with engine off, key on, the CEL came on then started to blink. Won't be able to get codes, unless i stop at autozone tonight. Appreciate any help.

You either need to buy a code reader yourself, or go to Autozone everytime your CEL comes on. That's how this works.

Thanks. I come first, did a search, found nothing so i left message. Messaged my uncle, he said if it blinks about 10 times, its the ecm (?) Doing a reset. (Or something like that)

For $100 you can get cord ($50) and lifetime license for Forscan ($50). You will get way more info than any scanner and you will never need anything else.

And the cord goes on sale every once in a while, on amazon.

Thanks for the info. I've hopped onto the forscan forum, seems confusing. But guess if you use it, you learn to understand it.
