Common questions
Is it safe to drive with the check engine light on?
A steady light is usually safe for a short time. A flashing light means a misfire, so drive gently and get it in the same day.
Can't the parts store just read the code for free?
They can read the code. Diagnosis means testing to find which part failed, which saves you from replacing parts that were fine.
