I'm no expert, but I think it's trying to tell you to service the engine soon. im no car expert either but from what i know is that the check engine light can come up for various reasons. sometimes its not even important to have it checked because itll just light up for something small. its always good to have it checked out though.
The OBD2 system will not BLINK codes for you. It requires a engine scanner to read the codes. HAVE ENGINE SCANED. Some parts stores will do that for free.
It is indicating that there is a fault with the engine of the car. You need to take it to a garage for repair/service.
check your fluids my camaros light was on and i ignored it i blew my engine
Possibly, but not likely. Have a compression test run.
This happens when there is an Active Misfire, or a urgent pending service matter. Get your codes checked.
You need a OBD 1 system or take it to a mechanic to check.
With a scan tool, or try turning key on, off, on, off, on and counting the blinks of the check engine light. blink, blink, blink, pause, blink would be 31.
On some if you turn key on, off, on, off, on. The check engine light may start to flash the code. blink, blink, bink, pause blink would be 31.
If the air conditioning light is blinking on a 1992 Chevy Pickup, it is possible that the Freon is low in the air conditioning system. it is also possible for this light to blink when the radiator fluid is low or there is a problem with the air conditioning belt running the pump.
A flashing engine light is usually a misfire.
Misfire detection.
first you nee to check and see if your car is referred to as OBDI or OBDII if its ODBI then you start with the car off.. turn the key to run but do not start the engine.. at this point you have less that 5 seconds to push the gas pedall all the way to the floor and press the overdrive button five times... then the check engine light will stay on.. and then blink... next its going to blink out the code for you for ex. blink-pause-blink blink-pause blink blink blink-pause blink n that would mean the problem code is 1231 just Google BMW problem codes and use that dcode to find out what the issue is..
