Is Your Check Engine Light On? 

Check engine lights can indicate a serious problem with your vehicle’s engine and fuel systems. If your check engine light is on but is not flashing, this indicates that there is a problem but it isn’t very serious. However, if it is flashing it is best to have it looked at as soon as possible. But how do you pinpoint what is causing the check engine light to come on? That’s where a mechanic like us can help by using a diagnostic scanner. These mini-computers connect to your vehicle’s computer systems to propagate a code that tells us what the exact problem is.  

Below are some of the possible issues that you check engine light could be caused by:

  • Loose Gas Cap
  • Faulty Spark Plug
  • Failing Oxygen Sensor
  • Engine Vacuum Leaks
  • Airflow Sensor Failure
  • Catalytic Converter Failure
  • Purge Valve Failure

Frequently Asked Questions:

Check Engine Light

We deal with check engine lights all the time so you could say we have seen it all. Our mechanics receive a lot of questions from customers so we have decided to list a few of the most popular answers below. 

A check engine light could mean a variety of different things but to sum it up it allows you to know when there is an issue with your engine. If you see the light on your dashboard it’s a good idea to take your vehicle to a reputable mechanic sooner than later. 

When your check engine light comes on it is never a good sign, however the problem could be an easier fix than you might think. If your engine light is activated and solid that means that there is an underlying issue but it is not a major problem. If the light is flashing that means there is a serious problem and you should take your car to a auto shop right away.

Generally the answer is no unless you are an experienced with motor vehicles or have access to a vehicle diagnostic scanner. Also some newer vehicles have the ability to display the codes and the corresponding engine issue letting you and the mechanic know exactly what’s wrong.
