Check Engine Light Diagnostics FAQs

What does it mean if my check engine light is on?

It indicates that your car may have a major problem with emissions or a fuel system. If it’s not addressed right away, you may end up seriously degrading the value of the car.

Can I ignore a check engine light if my car is running fine?

We highly recommend you address it right away because the issue cascades; you could be looking at much bigger issues than you would if you had taken care of the problem swiftly.

How long does a diagnostic take?

An hour max. We’ll have a wealth of information after this time and should be able to let you know exactly what’s going on with your car.

Will clearing the light fix the problem?

Clearing the light does nothing really. The important thing is that your technicians conduct a through inspection so tath all the problems are fixed at their roots before you run into larger problems.
