When you hit 60,000 miles did your "Service" light come on? I am not talking about the "Check Engine Light" I am talking about the "Service" light with the wrench uner it. I have been told that this light come on at 60,000 to remind you to do your maintenance.
Thanks <br>

Actually, that light comes on with the wrench to remind you that you are a tool.
Sorry, I couldn't resist. <br>

My service wrench light only comes on when I flash the highbeams 10 times to disable the daytime running lights.
How many knew you could disable the daytime running lights by flashing your highbeams 10 timees? Ahhh, you guys are pretty smart, im sure a bunch of you knew that.
<br>
I KNOW "NO MEENS NO", BUT BAAA BAAA, COULD MEEN ANYTHING!
I know that, but it doesn't work on my 2001 cavalier, and I know it works on others, so I guess I don't know what's the deal with that one... <br>

yeah it works, you blow your headlights and you lose your daytime running lights..
hahah
j\k
keith-
another Goatherder: Yea i knew it did that but i forgot how i found out..... <br>
Just Wait and See..........
Yeah....my light came on.......
because i had a burnt out light bulb
<br>
Mine came on around 60,000 because my left headlight burnt out. <br>
you dont have to hit the brights 10 times unless you want to blow your bulbs. on My 96 Z 5spd all you have to do is apply the ebrake and it will disable the daytime running lights.

Same effect as putting an auto in park. It's programmed into the ECU to mean that the e-brake being in means the car is parked.
But, a wrench light? When did they start this? The only wrench light i've ever seen is when screwing up one of the electric forklifts at work.

Noise doesnt add horsepower. Horsepower adds noise.

. Your a tool. Thats awesome.
As for the DRLs. I have a switch for that. Thanks TFM.
Anyways, it's there to remind you to service your car. Just another dummy light. <br>

ron- replace your gas cap. or tighten it all the way.
i had the same code. <br>
My 2003 has the wrench light, so I guess they started putting in in during the 2000 redesign of the dash. And E-braked doesn't work on the newer ones, unless you want to hear a buzzer because you forgot to undo the E-brake. <br>

i guess its the 2000 and up J's. My 97 doesnt have that, I know for a fact it doesnt because I have taken my dash apart and seen all the little icons it has, from the backside of it. <br>
im at 123,xxx and i havent seen one yet.
<br>
64k and no service engine light yet either...
<br>
Never had it come on for that between the 50K I got it with and the 104K it now has however I've had sensors throw that code before. <br>
mine came on when a headlight went out, but i'm only at 30k....and yeah i think the service light was added around 2000, cuz my 96 didnt have it either

I have a 2000 SF and my dash has both a Wrench and an Engine Icon light. My Engine icon has been on for awhile, came on at around 60-65K, must just be a sensor or something, have 82k on it, still works awesome. The tether on my gas cap is broke off, but that shouldn't be a problem...
ecotec's don't have service until 100k miles...and its change spark plugs...
I guess if the water pump goes bad along the way, u just replace it <br>
75,000 and no light. Everything's off cept my BRAKE lights (ABS is out).
