Maint Reqrd light

The light is turned on at approx 82,500 miles to tell you it's time to replace the O2. Resetting the maintenance lamp mileage counter must be done with a DRB II. I hear some aftermarket scanners can do it, but I have no experience with them.

Or you can take the bulb out and throw it away.

The timer module is under the dash on the right side of the steering column under the cruise module if you have one. It can be unplugged.

Will unplugging the timer module make the light go out???

Not on a 93. It's part of the engine computer.

And then some people wonder why I like the old stuff...

So Chrysler decided you 'had' to spend money one way or the other eh.

If you have the module, yes.

Someone who isn't particularly good with answers says you don't have one, that it is part of the computer now.

Aw, it ain't that bad. Throwing the bulb away is free.

Is there anything else that is hooked to the light except the O2 sensor, shruly there is??? I really dont want to just toss the bulb incase someting else happens and it needs to tell me "Maintenance Required"

Rich.

It's just a mileage timer.

The computer turns on the light at approx 82,500 miles to tell you to do emission system maintenance. It is just what it says it is, a maintenance reminder. It won't tell you if something has gone wrong. If you're going to ignore it anyway, what's the difference?
