    Mine does this too. Anytime I clear the code it comes back on within a day - usually. I went 3 months with it off until the last Moab trip - it has been on ever since. I already know it will go off again within a month, but I don't know what code it throws.

    Question Check Engine Light

    My Check Engine Light came on this evening, and twice I popped the hood looking for problems. I can't find any! Even the air filter looks clean! The only fluids consumed are the winshild wash fluid and fuel. No oil usage here.
    No performance problem that I can notice, but I don't no what sensor could be the problem?????? Huh????
    I guess I will pull the battery for 15min and see if it resets itself.

    a word of caution, but dont know how reliable it is,
    i was told that because of my code 1171, lean on acceleration, the computer was dumping too much fuel into the engine, and that that fuel was combusting in the cat converter, and in a matter of days destroyed my cat. converter..........

    bulldoggie, get the code read before you pull that battery, if its not too late.

    No Isuzu dealer nearby, I think someone said Autozone will read them?
    Do they charge a fee for reading codes? Will NAPA read them?

    no charge at auto zone, or napa, or similar.....just write down the code they read, then look it up here using the search
