What the check-engine light really means

It can be nerve-racking to see the check-engine light flick onto your dashboard . However , it ’ s important that you remain calm . Here ’ s what you should know .

What it indicates The check-engine light connects to your vehicle ’ s diagnostic system , which is an onboard computer that monitors vehicle performance and automatically repairs issues . If it encounters a problem it ’ s unable to fix , the diagnostic system turns on the engine-shaped orange or yellow light . This indicates that you need to get your car professionally serviced .
What you should do If your check-engine light comes on , there ’ s no need to panic or call a tow truck . It rarely signals an urgent problem such as a complete engine failure . Rather , in most cases , the check-engine light is merely warning you of an impending issue .
When you see it come on , you should make an appointment to have your car serviced as soon as possible . A qualified mechanic will be able to tell you what the problem is and perform the necessary repairs . n
