How do i reset the Check engine light

Asked by Guru9WB48W Feb 25, 2021 at 04:28 PM about the 2015 Chevrolet Malibu

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

(2015 chevy malibu)    My check engine light came on,
hooked it up to the scanner, got code for VVT
solenoid (intake).  I replaced both intake and exhaust
solenoids, the check engine light went out but came
back on about 2 miles down the road.  Can i reset the
check engine light or is there something else i have to
do?

If the check engine light came back on the problem hasn't been fixed. Did you clear the computer after the repair? If not it will take a few days of driving for the light to go out on its own. You need a code reader or scan tool to clear the computer. Hope that helps! Jim
