Before I go... I'm going to say something that will make the wait for VV Woodvils even more agonizing.... Sorry
I haven't used any of my Woodvils for weeks. Cleaned up and waxed re-homed Purpleheart/Curly Maple Woodvil yesterday. Every time I go, for a while, without using a Woodvil, I have to slap myself for not having one going all the time. Woodvils are so therapeutic in so many ways!!!!!
Hugs, Feisty Alice

If you've recently filled up your car and forgot to put the gas cap back on that will make your engine light come on. Don't ask me how I know.
Easy fix though, just unhook your battery and hook it back up.

Thanks. That's probably happened to more of us than are willing to admit. DH's car does that all the time even if everything has been closed up properly. I checked the cap first thing but unhooking the battery before doing anything else today is a GREAT idea. Thanks!!!!!! DH's car has a several step way to turn it off from inside car. Mine doesn't that I am aware of.
Thanks, Thanks, Thanks............ Many Thanks......... I'll report back tonight.

Must be an American thingy haha

Yeah, my light stays on even after I put the stinking cap back on. It's a Camry. Did it with a Mitsubishi I owned too.
Maybe it's a Japanese thing?

I once had an old Ford Taurus that did it too.
A simple application of electrical tape to your dashboard will turn that light out, you know.
Thank goodness I drive nothing but air cooled, non fancy smancy vehicles. Wife does have a 2011 CTS but I prefer my 69 Bug, 77 Bus, and 04 Harley. They all thump-n-go!
USPS: Acceptance
and am ready for them, thanks to all the great help from all of you!

I've been known to take a super tiny drill bit and drill right through the dash plastic and into the tiny bulb.
Problem solved, I don't need to check the engine .... Duh I know its an engine .... I looked at it once.
I'm pretty stoked for the VV's to start arriving with everyone. I you are half as happy as I am your all gonna crap your pants.
I own 2 WF-188's love them use them every day no problems knock on wood I charge the the IFR 14250's on them and the springs on 1 of them are better then the other but love the versatility of them.
A reo Noob question.. do we have to sign for these when they come or will usps leave them in mailboxes? My mail is always delivered while I'm at work.
you have to sign and after USPS gave away my 18350 batteries I for one think it's a good thing ( I wouldn't want the person who got my batteries to get my mod too the thieving, tampering with the us mail, low-life you know you don't have any use for those batteries piece of poo who ever you are)

Rob you are a Machine!!!!!!!! Thank You!!!!! Now get some rest!!!!!!!!
All this talk about cars and check engine lights.
I know a thing about them- I own 3 Volvos- and work on all of them- timing belts too...am on #7 Volvos now.
I used to own Hondas...anyway, the gas cap issue is an EVAP leak that can rear it's ugly head and set off the light.
If you have a code reader it will show up with what's wrong. I would do that (if you don't have a code reader, usually they'll check for free at an Autozone or similar store). You really should check codes before you start unhooking batteries. On my wife's car, you are not suppose to just unhook the battery....there is a process for it- key in position II before you do, and then hook it back up with the key back in position II- if you don't do this, you end up going through all kinds of parameter set-ups for the distance the sunroof opens, etc.... not to mention the radio code, etc...her car is an '04- so some "newer" cars are finicky this way. Always know what you're doing before unhooking a battery especially on a "newish" car. That said, it's always better to use a code reader and "reset" the light the right way with one. If you get an 02 sensor error for instance- it could be a bad catalytic converter, a bad 02 sensor, a bad Mass Airflow Sensor (MAF) or it could just be a hose that has dry rotted (and letting in unmetered air)_ as Alice already mentioned. Check the cheaper, easier stuff first before jumping into replacing 02 sensors or other "sensors" or even a Cat Converter- very rarely do these die and they are expensive....
Okay, back to the Reo VV discussion at hand!!
