Make sure the gas cap is on properly.
or, there may be an emissions problem. from what i understand, the only time that the "check engine" light comes on is for emissions (oxy. sensors, intake, etc.).
could be your mass air flow sensor. i have a 99 and that's what it was.
One reason that a 2000 GMC Jimmy engine stalls while driving could be your filter needing to be changed. The problem could also be a bad sensor.
If it is a SERVICE engine in most cases is a factory, Matinence reminder(change oils fluids, tune up, ect...), In some it could be a engine emissions problem, Bet normly that turns on a CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. hope that helps !! C-YA
One of the sensors is tripping the engine light. Codes need to be retrieved. Problems could be O2 sensor and or Catalytic Converter.
A blinking engine light could mean several things. The only way to know for sure is to have the Jimmy checked out by a licensed mechanic.
The "Service" light is just a maintenance reminder that is triggered on mileage. The "Check Engine" light is triggered by emissions system problems. Typically the O2 sensors trigger the check engine light but also a fuel cap that is not tightened, or a misfiring cylinder.
There could be several reasons why a Nissan Sentra service engine light is coming on. The car may need an oil change, tune up, or there could be a major engine problem.
A new service calibration for the powertrain control module was released to address a sag condition, as well as others. I recommend receiving this calibration from the dealer. There are any number of internal transmission problems that could be related to this concern, as well as engine mechanical problems or ignition related problems (spark plugs) that could cause this condition.
The "Service Engine Soon" light on a Nissan Frontier indicates that the vehicle's onboard diagnostics system has detected an issue that needs attention. This could range from minor problems like a loose gas cap to more serious issues such as engine or transmission malfunctions. It's advisable to check the vehicle's manual for guidance and consider having the vehicle scanned for trouble codes at a mechanic or auto parts store. Ignoring this light could lead to more significant problems down the line.
When the service engine soon light is blinking, it means a subsystem of the engine has failed. It could be something as simple as a broken gas cap, or it could be a serious engine problem. If the Explorer is still running fine, it is best to get the codes read at an auto service shop to determine the next course of action.
The service light on a 1991 Camry comes on for a variety of reasons at 55,000 miles. It could be that the oil needs to be changed or one of the oxygen sensors is bad. There is also a possibility that an air cleaner might need to be cleaned or changed. The light just means that there is a problem with the engine, that if not fixed, could lead to more major problems.
Yes, it may mean deeper engine problems. A faulty camshaft could be either the cause of further problems or a symptom of further problems. Or, best case scenario, no further problems at all. Realistically, only a hands-on, eyes-on mechanic is going to be able to tell you if there likely to be deeper problems in your engine.
