Best Answer

Check engine light on steady = have your vehicle checked.

If it is blinking = have your vehicle checked now.

=============================================

Just adding to the answer :

If your check engine light is blinking that means that an engine cylinder

misfire has been detected . You can drive it in for repair , just avoid any

rapid acceleration or deceleration because you can damage the catalytic

converter
