Check engine light

So i have been told different things regarding the check engine light turning off when starting your car. If it stays on does that mean the ecu is bad? My car is not cranking over and the engine light is not going off. I have been told it doesnt matter about that either. Thanks guys.

Re: Check engine light

your check engine light is on because the engine won't start

That there is the absolute truth, me & him just did this today on my 92 4dr lol. Take the ecu out of the car open it up look & see if its fried/burnt. If it is then its obviously bad.
