To reset the check engine light on a Ford Explorer, you need to cycle the vehicle on and off three times. Various engine issues can arise, such as a spark plug coming loose, a loose gasket needing tightening, or overheating leading to potential car fires or explosions. Additional maintenance includes promptly changing oil if excessive use is detected, replacing the air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, refreshing the coolant every 60,000 miles, and swapping out spark plugs every 100,000 miles unless you have a copper one, which should be replaced every 30,000 miles.
