Hi,
I brought my Frontier in for inspection and the service engine light is on. My mechanic says the diagnostics indicate both O2 sensors need replacement. I have no problem with that. He told me, however, that once he replaces these sensors, he cannot reset the light, that I need to do what he calls "40 starts and 40 stops," in other words drive it a week, before it will reset itself. In the meantime I cannot pass inspection because the light is on. This sounds crazy to me...I'd think once he replaces the sensors he could reset the service engine light. Is he correct?
Thanks,
Pete
