The GMC Acadia does not have a manual reset option for the check engine light. After fixing the issue, you'll need to cycle the vehicle on and off a few times for the light to turn off. If the light remains despite your efforts, you may have to resort to a more forceful approach. Try disconnecting the car's battery for 20 minutes to restore it to its default settings. Alternatively, if you have a scanner tool, you can use that to clear the light instead.

    Unhook the battery ground connection for around a minute or head to a car parts shop where they can reset it at no charge.

    Steve, some people will comply with the EPA regulations, but others won't. During my time at Advance Auto, we were informed that it was against EPA rules to reset codes. I wasn't bothered by what the government did or didn't want, but some of my colleagues were adamant about following the regulations.
