2004 taurus engine light.....

Replaced fuel filter this past weekend. Tapped the fuel shut off in the trunk, started the car and ran till dead, replaced filter, reset switch in trunk, primed pump, and started car.

Everything is good except 2 days later, the engine light came on at 68,500 miles. It hasent gone off yet and I have driven back and forth to work a couple times since(55 miles each way)

Is this purely coincidence? or did I trip the light by doing something wrong?


thankls!

Sounds coincidental. Any chance you gassed up and didn't get the cap on tight? Stop by an Auto Zone and they can read it for you to see what's up.

separate light for the cap but I checked that yesterday just incase and didnt go off.... forgot about autozone scanning things. I guess I will have to swing by there. Thanks!
