No matter what kind of Pontiac vehicle you drive, at some point you're
sure to come across a situation where the check engine light goes on and
will require the error code to be cleared out. Error codes are
triggered when your Pontiac's computer detects a mechanical issue with
the car and then illuminates the check engine light. Once the problem is
fixed, the code will need to be cleared out to turn off the check
engine light.

Tips & Warnings
If you don't have the time or feel confident working around the
battery, you can have the codes cleared out with either an OBD-1 or
OBD-2 scan tool, depending on the year of your Pontiac. Most auto parts
stores have these scan tools and will clear the codes for you, free of
charge.
When working in your battery, if you notice a blue, green or white
powdery substance on the battery terminals, use a wire brush to clean it
off. This substance is corrosion and can restrict the flow of
electricity from the battery to your vehicle.
After disconnecting and reconnecting the negative battery clamp,

means the codes were not cleared out of the computer. Disconnect the
battery again and wait for 5 minutes before reconnecting the clamp. The
extra time will be sure to clear out the engine codes.
