What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a XC70?

Can you clear the XC70 check engine light on your own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your XC70's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue.
