Check-Engine Light On? Don’t panic right away.

The reason why the check-engine light comes on is because something is out of its range in the emissions system. This could be anything from a loose gas cap to a burnt-out spark plug. Or even a worst case scenario of a plugged catalytic converter. The most important thing is: if the check-engine light is flashing go to your professional repair center right away.

If the light has just come on, the best thing to do is to check your gas cap first. If you have to, remove it and put it back on. It may take a few days for the light to go out if that was the issue. If the light stays on for longer than 3 days, it’s best to get it inspected by an automotive professional. Hopefully, it’s just a sensor out of its range.

In the video, you will see a couple scenarios featuring a failed spark plug and also where someone previously created a problem by replacing the air filter and at the same time disconnected something they shouldn’t have.

Remember, if the light has just come on, don’t panic. But, if the light is flashing, bring it to your automotive repair professional as soon as possible.
