What You Need to Know About Check Engine Lights

As a driver, one of the most concerning lights you may see on your dashboard is the check engine light. It can illuminate for seemingly endless reasons, making it confusing for many people. How do you properly handle a check engine light?

Check Engine Light Scans

Contact us at ArborMotion and we’ll help you determine if doing a simple check engine light scan is a good place to start. You’ll see these scans advertised at many automotive parts stores. They can offer clues as to which system is causing the code. The scans don’t give you pinpoint information, but they can be a good starting place for some problems.

Check Engine Light Diagnosis

When you call us, we’ll have a few questions to help determine if you need to bring your vehicle in for a full diagnosis. If you’re experiencing symptoms like a new noise or some form of shimmying, you’ll want to get your car thoroughly inspected. We’ll not only read the codes and take your vehicle out for a test drive to verify the symptoms, but we’ll get our hands dirty and start physically checking for the cause of the issue. 

Making a Check Engine Appointment

We make it as easy as possible for you to handle a potentially stressful warning light. Request an appointment online or give us a call at (734) 761-1088.
