You may need to rerun it for code,s,there may be another problem that did not show up the first time.

The CEL can be turned off with a scanner, as long as TST already has the answer and there are other problems.

The check engine light may not go off right away. The computer needs to run and pass diagnostics on the system before it decides everything is ok. If you don't have a scan tool, simply drive normally for about a week. BUT keep your gas tank between 3/4 and 1/4 full. No more and no less. This will insure that all the diagnostics will run. The light should go off in 2 or 3 days if the problem is solved. But, if after a week it's still on, something else is wrong. HTH. -Jim

I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500. The turn signals work for a short period of time then they freeze. The signals are light on the dash, but aren't blinking. I have the problem when turning right, left, and when the hazard lights are on. I have replaced the fuse. What could the problem be? 3 answers
Pickup has had the fuses replaced twice in the past two years. I can't seem to locate the problem and don't have the money for someone to look at it. Your advice would be very appreciated.

My 94 dodge ram 1500, 5.2L, runs okay but began using lot of fuel. Had trouble codes 37, 32, and 51. Cleaned throttle body and checked for vaccum leaks or bad hoses. Code 32 gone away. Cleared code 51 which according to Haynes manual is not supposed to make the check engine light come on. Their is no code 37 in the Haynes manual for a gasoline engine on the 94 Ram. Their is for diesel engine. What is it, where is it at and how do I correct the problem. 51 I know is the O2 sensor. Truck runs great, shifts fine , but is still using more fuel than normal. Been reading about code 37 and transmissions, don't think my problem is there. Any help ? 3 answers
Cannot get the Code 37 to clear, can disconnect the battery and the code 51 clears, The code 32 has not come back but 51 comes back. 37 does not go away. Engine light will not come on after starting...
