A lot of misinformation about check engine lights exists. The truth is, your check engine light could indicate about 100 different problems monitored by your vehicle’s on-board diagnostic system.

Understanding why the check engine light is on is more involved than simply reading a code. You need an expert to tell you exactly why the light is on and pinpoint what, if any, repairs need to be made. Without proper diagnosis, you might be letting something go that could lead to more costly repairs in the future.

Why did my Check Engine Light go on?

A check engine light could indicate problems with your vehicle’s emissions system. Sometimes your check engine light indicates a problem that can be as simple as replacing your gas cap or dipstick. Other times, the repairs are more serious; ignoring your check engine light could lead to you needing a tow truck. Below are a list of common reasons a check engine light can light up:

Eventually, these problems could lead to mass emissions system failure in your vehicle. Whatever the repair, the ASE-certified auto technicians in our mechanical repair shop can help, so don’t wait. Get a quality auto repair from the experts at Quanz.

Emissions Testing & Your Check Engine Light

A check engine light could mean failure of the New Mexico emissions test. Even if your vehicle is running properly, it doesn’t mean its exhaust system or muffler isn’t releasing hydrocarbons into the air. The efficiency of your catalytic converter is key to passing the emissions test, so contact us before you go in for emissions testing or if you were unable to pass the emission program. We can repair your vehicle so that you can get back on the road!
