Do you notice how your check engine light comes on from time to time? Sometimes you think nothing of it, especially when it goes off and on for 5 seconds. Sometimes the wires get crossed inside your car's system and it means nothing. Some car systems are so sensitive that anything can set it off. However, this is not the case for every car.
Other times your check engine light is trying to tell you something.
Your check engine light is trying to tell you the car is "sick" and it needs to be checked out. The fever may be small or large. Just like when you avoid seeing a doctor, the size of your car's "temperature" is related to how long you let the check engine light go. The longer you wait, the sicker your car will get and the more money you have to spend.
Please bring your car in. Allow our mechanics to look it over. The sooner we can find the problem, the less money you will have to spend on a bigger repair job.
