All gauges read normal? SES? This might be one of those that require pulling the bulb and playing ignorant. I dunno, but I am sure someone here does. Goodluck.

Hummmm, just two things come to mind. Temp & volts, if either are out of normal range I think the "check gauges" lite comes on....not entirely sure but I think it's in the owner's manual. I'm too lazy to go to the car & look it up!

so its in the owners manual . thanx i guess i,ll get my but off the couch stop typing and go look . thanx

"Check Gauges" is not caused by an engine malfunction code, that would be "Service Engine Soon". I agree with the previous poster, oil temp/pressure or voltage.

all my gauges still read fine. are their secondary sensors that go to that light . guess ill have to hook up some mechanicals or does anyone know how to test to see if that light has gone haywire. sorry but I am electricly challenged

Doe's the light come back on after the car has been shut down and restarted ?? And if so, is it immediate or doe's it take a few minutes ?? Sometimes these computers just have a brain f--- and need to be reset by turning the car off and restarting.

[jonszr1]

yyes it does and its immediate. guess i will try taking off the battery wire and see if that doesnt cure things.

You need to double and triple check your actual pressures and temps, dont want to lock it up. All your fluids have full pressure and correct temps? What about gas?

[jonszr1]

wgat do you mean gas is that dause the thing to light too?
