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

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

It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. 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.

All About 1992 Geo Tracker Drivetrain Service

Your Tracker’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your Tracker’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 1992 Geo Tracker to maintain its performance power. Follow Geo's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Geo Tracker Drivetrain Repairs
