Check Engine Warning Lamp

[8MYROVER]

Suddenly one day, for no apparent reason, the check engine warning lamp activated. After calling H2's Road Side Assistance, they indicated that it was an emissions problem and they towed it to the nearest dealer where it took up residence for more than a week. When it was finally returned, it was discovered that the plastic tether in the gas cap had not retracted fully into the fuel filler and the cap had not properly seated. To avoid this, turn the gas cap about three times after you have put it back on to make sure that it "clicks". Should it happen to you, just put the gas cap back on properly, and disconnect the battery to reset the computer, as it has read an emissions error code for a mere loose gas cap. You will have to reprogram all of your personalized settings. A lot of aggravation over nothing.

Happy Motoring
