Write down the codes , then clear them up , and go for a road test.When above event happens , stop and check the code right away , see what you find and repair according to the code.

2009 ford fusion engine light stays on steady

You just have to disconnect the battery for 1/2 hour. then reconnect and drive for 10 miles so computer can relearn your engine again. It may run rough. You should have the key off when refueling because computer sensed a fuel vapor leak during fueling and turned the light on.

Also, you can always drive with a check engine light on. It just means you are not meeting emissions. Do not drive if it's flashing on and off.

Check engine light reset

You need to run the monitor. Which means you have to drive for at least 25 miles(or one day), before you go back to the smog station.
