Common Causes

Although a number of issues can cause the check engine warning, there are a few typical causes. These can give you an idea of what you might expect during your check engine light repair with us. To be sure of the issue, you’ll want to visit our technicians for expert diagnostics.

Oxygen Sensors

The oxygen sensors measure the unburned oxygen remaining in your vehicle’s exhaust. If they malfunction, your auto will run less efficiently and consume more fuel. Failure to replace the oxygen sensor in a timely manner can lead to catalytic converter and spark plug damage.

Loose Gas Cap

Another common, yet perhaps surprising, issue may be the gas cap. The check engine light may activate if the gas cap is loose or damaged. You may be losing your fuel through vapor leak and evaporation if your cap is gone or broken.

Spark Plugs

Spark plugs or spark plug wires that need replacing may be another trigger for the check engine warning. These parts are necessary for igniting the fuel-air mixture in the engine cylinder. Without timely replacement, you’ll notice reduced performance and fuel economy. Failure to act could also damage the ignition coils, catalytic converter, or oxygen sensors.
