There are various methods to reset the check engine light on the 2012 Chrysler 200. Before attempting any of them, it's essential to find a safe place to park the car. The simplest approach is to allow the check engine light to reset on its own over time—it typically disappears after 40 successful runs. However, if the light persists, it indicates an ongoing issue that must be resolved. Alternatively, you can disconnect the battery, wait a few minutes, and then restart the vehicle. Another option is to manually trigger the computer's "Successful Run" mode by driving forward and then in reverse a few times before restarting the engine.

    To clear the check engine light on your 2012 Chrysler 200, you can either disconnect the battery cables for 10-15 minutes before reconnecting them, or you can turn your ignition key to the "on" position and then to the "off" position twice. After that, start the engine and the light should go away.

    I gave the ignition switch method a try, and it did the trick. It's a simpler solution compared to removing the battery cables, especially given that the battery is located in the wheel well.
