Is Your Check Engine Light Flashing or Static?

A flashing versus static check engine light makes a difference in the need for immediate inspection and check engine light diagnostic testing. If the light is static–not flashing–you have a little more time before you need to bring the vehicle to the Techway Automotive team in Opp, AL. A steadily illuminated check engine light means there’s a fault code being read by the onboard computer, but it’s not a dire situation yet. You can bring the vehicle to our shop on your schedule, though you shouldn’t delay too long or risk more damage and more expensive repairs to fix the damage. If your check engine light is flashing–or showing up as orange or red instead of yellow, your engine is going through something more drastic that can lead to catastrophic engine failure. When you have a flashing check engine light, you should bring your vehicle to the ASE-Certified technicians at Techway Automotive as soon as possible to avoid bigger problems than your engine already has.

What Will a Check Engine Light Diagnostic Test Tell Me?

When you bring your vehicle to Techway Automotive to have a check engine light diagnostic performed, our ASE-Certified technicians will hook your vehicle up to our state of the art diagnostic equipment and then physically inspect the areas related to the codes the diagnostic test gives them. Based on the codes from the diagnostic test and their inspection, our team of technicians will recommend maintenance and repair services needed to fix the fault code and any physical issues with your vehicle. A check engine light can mean many things, including a loose or faulty gas cap, worn spark plugs, problems with your catalytic converter, or issues with your oxygen sensors. Rather than guessing and hoping the problem is only a small one, your best bet is to bring us your vehicle and let us perform the check engine light diagnostic and make our recommendations for repairs. Heading off problems early will help keep your repair costs lower than allowing for a catastrophic engine failure to take your vehicle off the road entirely.
