Can you reset your CT4’s malfunction warning light at home?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended.

Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.
