If your Equinox has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

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

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable.

Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Equinox.

Is my Equinox’s transmission part of the drivetrain?
