What does it mean when my “check engine” or service engine light comes on?

Your engine contains many sensors and computerized components that manage your vehicles engine performance. When one of these fails, your check engine light comes on in your vehicle. When the check engine light flashes constantly as opposed to staying steadily illuminated, this means that the damages to your engine are more severe. You should stop driving immediately and have your vehicle towed to minimize damages. If your check engine light is on but not flashing, this means you need to schedule an appointment as soon as possible to have a diagnosis done.

Ignoring the blinking engine light and still driving your vehicle will do more damage to your engine and cost more to repair.
