Hey all,
Today my check engine light came on. However its weird how it has come on right at the start of our cold winter weather. In the last couple of days, the temperature has dropped below 0 degrees celcius which is very uncommon in our area. So I am thinkin it has to be the weather that is causing the problem. I have a 1997 Explorer with the 4.0 SOHC eng. Oil pressure, battery level, and temp level's all appear normal. Engine seems to be running fine. I know i can bring it to the dealer but i know they'll just charge me an arm and a leg for reading the error codes. But one thing i wanted to ask is if it is bad for me to just disconnnect the batter to reset the computer and see if the light goes away? Someone please help! thanks!
