Everyone has experienced a check engine light. For most people, it's nearly impossible not to feel a moment of alarm. While there is a need for concern, there's no reason to panic. The engine light may have come on for any of the following reasons:
- The EVAP purge solenoid needs replacing.
- The spark plugs and wires need replacing.
- Your mass air flow sensor is faulty.
- The ignition coil is faulty.
- Your thermostat needs replacing
- The fuel cap is loose, missing, or damaged.
- Your catalytic converter is on its last leg.
- Your vehicle’s oxygen sensors, one or more, have failed.
Whatever the cause of your check engine light, the key to handling it is getting it done quickly. While these issues may start off small, ignoring them can exacerbate your situation until you're dealing with a major problem instead of a minor repair.
To get your check engine issue diagnosed, contact the service center at Ralph Sellers Chrysler Dodge Ram Jeep. The staff of our Gonzales, LA location is stocked and equipped to help you figure out what's wrong, and fix it.
