You need to first get the car scanned for the light causing code NUMBER (a free service most anywhere that sells Auto Parts). With that, we should be able to help.

Also add your location under "User CP" as I'm thinking that you are other than USA. Assistance and code rendering may differ. Engine type and size too!

Welcome aboard!

 

Wow, thanks for a quick reply. I read somewhere that sometimes you can take the battery plug off and plug them again after a while. Would it not help me? Otherwise i'll buy a code reader.

 

Re-booting the ECU by disconnecting the battery for a moment might do it.

Buy a scanner if you want, but free testing or a borrowed unit will suffice.

Just pull the codes BEFORE rebooting the ECU, or you'll not know what caused the CEL to illuminate to begin with.

 

Indeed then i'll never come behind the problem. Thanks for your advice. It's a big help already. I'll post more when i know something more. Thanks a lot.

 

As its a Swift then I would imagine that its not a US model, it is therefore extremely unlikely to be OBD2 so a regular scan tool won't work. You should be able to pull fault codes using a jumper in the monitor coupler (diagnostic connector). What model is it? I have a bunch of Swift service manuals on pdf.

Very true. It's an european suzuki. I live in the Netherlands.
Model details: 1999
SUZUKI SWIFT II hatchback (EA, MA)
1.0 i (53Pk) Petrol

 

It will be OBD1 then. PM me the VIN and I will look up the model code, it will be something like SF410.
