Inside your vehicle's computer is a diagnostic system that helps to monitor vehicle operations. The purpose of the check engine light is to monitor emissions from your vehicle. It can also indicate more serious mechanical problems. The ignition, fuel, and emission systems are linked to this light, and there could be a serious issue. Experienced technicians will be able to diagnose and advise you on what repairs may be needed. Having this diagnostic test is advisable as soon as possible if the light is solid or flashing.

Neglecting This Service May Be Costly

Many issues could trigger the check engine light. Something as simple as a loose gas cap could activate the light.
