Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my SW2?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your SW2 can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Is it possible to reset the SW2 malfunction warning light on my 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.

Is my SW2’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your SW2 is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
