Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your RC F’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Can you clear the RC F check engine light on your own?

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.
