Can my Hombre malfunction warning light be reset 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.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1997 Isuzu Hombre

Your Hombre’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 the most complex systems in your Hombre and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 1997 Isuzu Hombre to maintain its performance power. Follow Isuzu's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are Isuzu Hombre Drivetrain Repairs

You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 1997 Isuzu Hombre drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Hombre might need driveshaft repair if you notice resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts.
