Ok so as frenchy already knows i had a accident with my truck..To make a long long story short I was wheeling in the woods by the Connecticut River.The trails had flooded and all turned to pure ice. As I came up over a hill I relized I wasnt stopping.I slide 5 or 600 FT and slammed into a tree. Now Iam stuck on pure ice and bottoming out. I figured it was the hitch cause it always bottoms out. Not to my knowledge it was actually my exhaust being bent into my rear tire!!! I did 110 MPH with my tire being shredded to pieces with out even knowing it!!The next day i woke up and i had two flats, Front right and Rear. Iam assuming the front flat was caused by grabbing a root or something in 4low. So now my check engine light is on and iam wondering if this could have been caused by the o2 sensors clogging up cause no exhaust was excaping...I had to cut my tail pipe off because it was kinked shut..I just cleaned my intake and started the truck about ten times hoping it would reset..Any ideas on why the lights on??? O yeah and my warranty is up!!!

I don't know if you have Autozones up there, they'll check it with a code scanner for free. You might check some of the other parts stores. Saves a lot of guess work sometimes.

scanning really is your best bet. all of us here could guess blindly forever, but having it scanned will get you an answer right away....or, at least, steer you in a particular direction to look at.
Well, you could do a couple of things. The one that I would do is take it to an Autozone, or any part store that pulls codes for free. See what codes pullup and go from there. If you don't want to do that you could always unplug the negative on your battery for 20 minutes to clear the codes. Then take the truck for a spin and see if the MIL comes back on. If it does, go get the codes read.
It's pretty hard to say what is going on because of how it was beat on for that little bit. Not saying that in a bad way, you were just out having fun in a truck andice sucks.It could be a few different things and getting the codes read would make it a lot easier to tell what's going on though.
with my gen 2 you could just turn the key on and off three or four times and then on and the code would scroll in the odometer window. With that code you could google codes and find out what it is. there is a master list for chrysler obII codes
Yeah its drivable...I put a new tire on the rear and had the tire taken off the spare rim..Lack of money..So now i have a rim in my bed with no tire on it..LOL..I really havnt notice any difference in running/drivability.. Iam trying to avoid going to the dealer cause i know theyll rape me money wise
