Dear Vladimir,

Thank you for the response. Sure makes me feel good about my experience,

its not as bad as yours! :) I tried the disconnect the battery trick

(found another thread referencing that) but that didn't work.

I may just purchase the OBDII scanner anyway. If it turns off I will be

happy.

I believe it to be a part failure though. It went off once before on its

own only to come back on months later.

One day, the light went on and I took off the fuel filler cap, then screwed

it back on. I started the car and the light was still on. Went to work,

came out and started the car and the light was off! I went and bought a new

gas cap and thought I had it. One month later, while on the highway after

about 50mi of driving, it goes back on and has stayed on ever since.

Thank you again for your response ... it is really appreciated.

Robert
