Engine check light on - transmission repair

Do you have a Check Engine Light lit up on your dashboard? The Check Engine Symbol only turns on when your vehicle’s computer system is aware that something is wrong. Keep reading to discover the list of the most common transmission error codes and what they mean.


Check Engine Light is On

Although vehicles continue to operate when the check engine light is on your dashboard, it is important to not ignore it. Check engine lights do not come on unless there is an issue that needs to be address, so make sure to get it diagnose by a professional ASAP.

A blinking/flashing Check Engine symbol indicates that the error is a more serious issue and it is not safe to drive the vehicle. So, if you ever have a blinking check engine light lit up, it is best for your safety to pull over and have your vehicle towed.
