If your Suburban 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.

Is it possible to reset the Suburban malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Suburban's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue.

Does my Suburban transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Suburban’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Suburban forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
