Well, 1st of all, the engine is no doubt going to be there, so there is no reason to check the engine bay. 2nd of all, it could be a whole range of things, it could be timing chains, low oil pressure, faulty oil pressure sensor or it could be an O2 Sensor, it could be anything.
Essentially “you are pissing in the wind” as some would say!
The car might run fine but there could be something very wrong with the car or it could be a simple fix. Some items include:
- Faulty Sensor – Could be a faulty O2 or Oil Pressure Sensor causing the issue.
- Low Oil Pressure – Could be that you have a faulty oil pump that requires a replacement.
- Timing Chain Issues
- Low Battery Voltage – The battery could be going flat and have a low voltage. This can cause some modules to not function correctly and can cause an ABS or Airbag light.
What you need to do it probably avoid driving it where possible and do one of the following:
- Take it to a mechanic that you might know that can scan the car’s computer and find out the issue. They will use a scan tool and find out what the fault error code is. If it is something serious they could quote you $xxx and you could be without your car for a number of days.
- Take it to a mate who has a Scan tool or an OBD2 tool that can scan the computer for you, find out the issue, and potentially fix it yourself or clear the code if it isn’t a serious issue.
How to reset Check Engine Light
How to reset VE Commodore ECU?
There are some quick fixes, but it could come back again after 30 seconds, 5 mins, 10 mins, 20 mins, an hour, a few hours or after a day.
- Disconnect the positive terminal of the battery for 10 to 20 mins and then reconnect the battery, this should clear the code, but it could come back. This will just clear and reset the computer, however, this might not 100% resolve the issue.
- Find a mate who has a scan tool that can clear the code for you, however, it could come back again. At least with a scan tool, you can find out what the error code is and information about the error from a quick Google.
- Ensure the battery is charged. I’ve had it happen to me when the battery has insufficient charge and due to low battery voltage, it has caused electronic errors and triggered a “Check Engine Warning”.
This is often because there is a low battery voltage, not all electrical components can operate successfully.
For example, I have had issues with ABS, Airbag faults and Cruise Control not work or trigger a light due to insufficient voltage.
Ensure you charge the battery to ensure all safety systems and electrical components can run.
A failing car battery means low voltage. As a result, the car’s computer, is reporting errors due to elements and modules of the car not having sufficient power.
An error code will be generated could trigger the Check Engine Light. This includes the ABS Module in a Holden VE.
The car might run fine but there could be something very wrong with the car or it could be a simple fix. Some common problems:
- Faulty Sensor – Could be a faulty O2 or Oil Pressure Sensor causing the issue.
- Low Oil Pressure – Could be that you have a faulty oil pump that requires a replacement.
- Timing Chain Issues
A bad battery can cause problems in electrical and electronic parts, including the computer. It can even cause a “Check Engine” light.
There are some quick fixes, but it could come back again after 30 seconds, 5 mins, 10 mins, 20 mins, an hour, a few hours or after a day.
- Disconnect the positive terminal of the battery for 10 to 20 mins and then reconnect the battery, this should clear the code, but it could come back. This will just clear and reset the computer, however might not 100% resolve the issue.

- Ensure the battery is charged. I’ve had it happen to me when the battery has insufficient charge and due to low battery voltage, it has caused electronic errors and triggered a “Check Engine Warning”.
Overall, you need to get the car looked at by someone in the know and get the issue fixed. Yes, the car may run fine, however, it may be more than what you think. It could be a simple home garage fix or it could be a mechanic fix. If you don’t know what you are doing, go to someone who does or have a mate who knows what to do with you and learn!
You may wish to invest in an OBD2 tool for future issues which might help diagnose issues quicker in the future. You can find out details on the OBD2 Information Page.
