Can you reset your CT200h’s malfunction warning light at home?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. 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.

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your CT200h’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your CT200h forward.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2013 Lexus CT200h

Your CT200h’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 CT200h’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2013 Lexus CT200h to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Lexus's recommendations.
