'96 Passport engine light
 

My son's "check engine" light went on in his '96 Passport. Told him to
check the owner's manual. No service manual. Meanwhile, can anyone
troubleshoot for me?

Go to like Autozone, and have them pull out the troubleshoot code(s).
My 2000 Prelude 'check engine' light came on due to a failed primary
O2 sensor; bought the part through wholesale dealership, and replaced
it myself (dealer was going to charge $450 to fix; part cost me only
$200) The code will tell you more accurately what's going wrong.
FYI!

Re: '96 Passport engine light
 

If it's the O2 sensor, buy it from Autozone (Bosch brand $80). hparts.com
wanted around $150, dealer $250.

Thanks Robert and Andy. I'll tell my son. Assume they have Autozones in
Idaho. Thanks again.

Re: '96 Passport engine light
 

Had this happen to me and the dealership told me that if you fill you
car up with it running, the low pressure in the gas tank will set it
off. It is suppose to cut back off when you start the car three times
when it has adequate pressure, but ours would never cut back off and
we had the get the dealership to turn it off the two times it has
happened and they never charged us. It's definitely worth getting
someone to diagnose it.
