Generally the check engine light in the 2006 Chevy Silverado would need to be reset using an OBD-II Scan Tool. They can typically be purchased for $40 to $50 depending on the included features. You can also visit Your local auto shop to have a professional clear the code. The OBD-II port is located on the driver side under the dashboard. Another reported solution is to disconnect the battery for 10 to 15 minutes. You should only try to clear the warning if You are 100 percent sure there are no issues present and/or You have fixed the potential problems. There are a variety of reasons for the light to turn on such as a failing catalytic converter, a loose fuel cap, incorrect fuel/air mixture detected by the MAF sensor, or a faulty oxygen sensor.

The check engine light can be reset by turning the ignition on and off three times.
