Default Engine light
I have a 04 XJ8. I just got the 40,000 mile service done, now I have 41,000 miles and the engine light came on. Does anyone know how to turn it off without going into a dealer?

Sorry I'm of no help.

Don't you think you should have it checked? Could be something important.

You would need an OBD2 reader. Best to find out what set it off first. The reader can also reset the error code(light off).

The 04 XJ connector is under the driver(left in US) side dash panel just next to the console. I think 00 is the same.
