What To Do When Your Check Engine Light Comes On
The engine in your car is a finely tuned, extremely hard-working piece of machinery. It contains hundreds of moving parts that all work together to make sure your car functions efficiently as possible. In addition to all of the pieces that work together to make your car mobile, there is also an intricate system of checks and balances that ensure everything continues you to work properly.
What Does Your Check Engine Light Really Mean
Your check engine light is simply an indicator light that lets you know when something is wrong. What many people don’t understand is that your check engine light is the first indication that something is going on within your engine. It will kick on as soon as your car “throws a code”. Every moving part or action that has to do with your engine has a “code” or set of numbers attached to it. Your check engine light means that you should take your car to the dealership and have it put on the computer to see which code is failing.
Take it Serious
The check engine light is just the first of many things that will happen when something starts to go wrong with your vehicle. Your car may still run but it isn’t running at optimum efficiency. Ignoring a check engine light signal can lead to major problems if you don’t correct the problem when it first arises. Once your check engine light kicks on, it’s important that you visit your dealership to have a diagnostics check performed as soon as possible. Waiting could cost you quite a bit of money when prompt attention may have fixed the problem for just a few dollars.
