If your Metro 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 my Metro malfunction warning light be reset at home?

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

Does my Metro transmission belong to the drivetrain system?
