Yeah, well it happens to the best of us. Even Santa. The dreaded “Check Engine Light”. Hopefully it’s an easy and inexpensive fix like maybe Rudolph has a loose gas cap.
In actuality though, the Check Engine Light can come on for hundreds of reasons. Some small and simple; some more drastic and detrimental.
The problem is, there is only one Check Engine Light to cover them all and if you ignore it thinking it’s small, it may hide a bigger problem and before too long it may lead to a breakdown.
To my knowledge, Santa doesn’t leave new engines or transmissions under the tree (believe me, I’ve asked!)!
So you should get the elves at Fletcher’s Garage to scan the system and address the issue(s) before the rest of your dashboard lights come on looking like a Christmas tree!
If your CEL is blinking like the Star of David, you really need to get it checked as a simple misfire could lead to Catalytic Converter damage where some real cost comes in!
It’s easy enough to schedule a Diagnostics Test at Fletcher’s Garage, and trust me, it may be the best present that you give yourself!
Call 215-295-4931 and everyone have a Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah and an Uneventful Festivus for the rest of us!
