Many thanks from Germany. It also worked on my 2004 CRV. This morning when I got into the car, the engine light suddenly came on. I was already panicking that it was something bigger and more expensive. When I opened the tank cap, there was a strong vacuum.
@@hamzabirinci2335 yes, it did. I forget what the problem was but when I was at the Honda Dealer for something else and told them about this, they told me that by disconnecting the battery, the computer loses the code for "check engine." So they couldn't analyze the problem until the light came back.
Sometimes hitting a pothole can activate it. If you do this and it turn back on then you know there is a problem and should look further into it. If it doesn’t then you are good. These sensors can be too sensitive sometimes.
This is effectively a temporary solution to reset the cars store diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) when a problem is detected. Disconnecting the battery cable temporarily resets the ECU, which can clear any stored DTCs and, as a result, turn off the check engine light. However, this is only a temporary solution because if the underlying issue causing the DTC isn't resolved, the ECU will detect the problem again and trigger the check engine light once more. To properly diagnose and fix the issue causing the check engine light, you should use an OBD-II scanner to retrieve the stored DTCs from the ECU. Once you've identified the problem, you can address it accordingly. In some cases, you may need to consult a professional mechanic for help.

Yes it works 🎉
This doesn’t fix the problem, it temporarily hides the problem
I think mine was for gas cap. Major problems can't fix it. Sorry it didn't work for u

You might want to wear a gloves when you disconnect/reconnect the battery terminal, just to be safe
It’s really work!!!
Why don´t just disconnet and reconnect the right fuse from the fuse box?
because that's in a panel under the steering wheel and much more work.
I guess in some other Honda models the access it is easier.
Muchas gracias te debo una
Workd for me but if i didn't touch the negative off the battery i wonder would engine light disappearing
It might reset your radio
yeah but it comes back on, you can't take it to inspection
Sorry hearing that. This method will only fix gas cap engine light problems
This turns off the light but the computer stores the codes it won't pass emissions
Just did on crv 2016 light is off....no trip to dealer
Yeah it works for one day.. I tried that it doesn’t work.
If the check engine light did not go off, you have something wrong with your car.
I see no turbocharger. You're obviously doing something wrong.
Hahaha no need
G7 no engine light check
Taking your battery off is stupid
