Does Check Engine light come on to change Timing Belt ? 850 1994

My Mazda MPV, long gone, had the CEL come on every 80K miles for a timed service. They wanted $250 to turn the light out, then more money to do the service check for the emmissions!
You are wrong, the CEL only comes on if there is a problem. There is nothing in the system about a timing belt warning, or any other warning. The service light comes on when it is time for an oil change.
If you suspect a problem, take it to an Autozone or Pepboys and have the codes read an reset. Just be sure to show them where the port is -- under the "coin holder".
Read your real miles from the computer.
