You have a bad oil pump.
The oil light is not there to let you know the oil level is low. It's to notify you that the oil pressure is low. There are many things that can cause this, and being low on oil (you'd actually need to be almost completely out of oil) is only one of them. Take it to a mechanic to find out what the problem actually is. "Rattling from engine" is a bad sign.
you have to remove the lower engine splash shield to gain axcess to the fog light bulbs. you have to raise and support the veh to take off the engine splash shield
Yes, an unplugged sensor can cause a check engine light.
No, low gas cannot cause a Check Engine light to turn on. There would have to be a problem within the engine or the engine wiring for that light to come on.
No, oil level does not cause the check engine light.
Yes, water can cause a misfire, which will cause the check engine light to flash.
No, but something that could cause uneven idle could cause the check engine light to turn on.No, but something that could cause uneven idle could cause the check engine light to turn on.
The check engine light is reset with a scan tool after repairing the cause of the fault.The check engine light is reset with a scan tool after repairing the cause of the fault.
Yes. Your Check Engine light or Service Engine Soon light.
This is a possible cause: Halfway through the exhaust system you have a "catalytic converter". The converter has a heat shield over it. It's just a piece of thin metal that is not absolutely necessary to the operation of your vehicle. They usually rust out where they are connected to the converter. Then when you accelerate, it rattles like a piece of light metal hitting heavier metal. You can spend a lot to have the shield replaced (Waste of money)or you just crawl under the vehicle and bend the shield back and forth until it breaks off. Even most mechanics do this. The whole purpose of the shield is to try and deflect some of the heat from the converter...ie...when you drive into a pile of leaves or really tall grass, the converter won't ignite the leaves.(converters get very hot) The shields are pretty useless and I think they were designed to make us crazy once they get rusty!! Hope this helps!AnswerThe above answer sounds right, but on my 97 explorer V8 the same rattling ocurrs when accelrating, especcialy when the engine is cold,due to a faulty exuast flange coming off the engine`s right manifold.this part can be seen by looking behind and near the top of the right front tire.To verify if this is the problem,start the truck when the engine is cold,and the hood open,and the truck in park,have someone step on the accelerator while you lisen to the engine, if the rattling sounds like its its coming from the right side of the engine , that's the problem.
It really depends on what the cause of the check engine light is.
