What Is A Check Engine Light?

A Check Engine light is a warning light located on your dash or instrument cluster and usually features an illuminated symbol that looks like an engine, or it may simply say ‘Check Engine’ or ‘Service Engine Soon’ depending on the vehicle. This light turns on when the engine computer detects a problem with a sensor or electrical component that is designed to monitor the performance of the engine, transmission, or emissions system. Check Engine lights usually flash to indicate high-priority issues in your vehicle, and will remain lit until the code is cleared or the issue is resolved.

What Causes a Check Engine Light?

A Check Engine light comes on when your engine computer receives a signal that there is an issue in your vehicle from a sensor or malfunctioning component in the electrical system. A Check Engine light is a general warning that you need to inspect your car’s engine and internal systems and helps you determine if you should continue to operate your vehicle to prevent more costly damage. Check Engine lights can be activated by something as simple as a loose gas cap that causes evaporative emissions system leaks, a failing oxygen sensor or ignition coil, or may be serious enough to indicate issues that could cause catastrophic engine failure.
