Ignoring a check engine light brightly illuminated on your dashboard is like ignoring those love handles on your spouse: it may not be an issue now but it could grow into a much bigger problem later. It’s been the unfortunate experience of most car owners to be caught off-guard from time to time by an engine light that refuses to turn off. But what does it mean? A persistently lit engine light could mean a number of issues, ranging from the innocuous annoyance of a loose gas cap to the nightmare scenario of a blown head gasket. After checking the gas cap for yourself, if your check engine light continues to illuminate your dash, check with a professional auto repair technician. A check engine light that is suddenly blinking needs immediate attention. A flashing light means that possible damage is occurring. You should also be able to notice a difference in your vehicle’s performance. Try not to drive your vehicle and have a tow truck deliver your car to your trusted mechanic.
