I have 2009 Ford police inceptor... My check [engine](/topics-engine-ford/) light came on.... I got a scanner the code read purge valve was bad.... I changed the purge valve an evr Valve..... I unplugged both cables on the battery post... Drove it for 2 days the check engine light came back on... Check the code purge valve.... Do I need to re set it a different way?? Mechanic's Assistant: Does the light stay on, or does it blink? Stays on no blinking Mechanic's Assistant: What is the model of your '09 Ford? Police inceptor Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your vehicle yourself? What have you tried so far? Me an my friend... I went to AutoZone they said did you reset the car properly.... So on my car you have to turn the ignition key on but don't start the car.... Leave the positive battery post on take off the negative post for about 5 minutes.. reattaching negative post start the car up and that's how you should reset it the check engine light went off..... But I don't know if it's going to come back on after driving it for a while Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? That's it
