engine management light still on

[silversax52]

to cut a long story short i had a problem with an injector which was causing a missfire, i have now changed them all and the car runs sound now. I had the battery disconnected for 2 days prior to doing the work but the light is still showing on my dash , im just wondering if this needs reset or connected to computer as it took a few turns of the engine to get it going again so unsure if it would of still picked it up as a fault ?

It may go oit whilst you are driving but you may need to get a computer on it to put it out and clear the code

yea sometimes after driving about 30 miles it will go out mine did. if not then it will need to be reset.

thanks, would it have to be 30 miles in one go or does it not matter?

it probably took longer to start because the fuel would have had to be primed to the injectors.
you will need to take the car to get the computer code erased as it is keeping it as a past fault.
