What’s a Check Engine Light?
The one thing drivers can count on when something goes wrong in their vehicle is for the check engine light to illuminate. While the light doesn’t pinpoint the exact issue, it signals a malfunction that needs attention. From a loose gas cap to a faulty catalytic converter, the check engine light alerts drivers to a problem that requires a visit to an auto shop.
If you see your check engine light come on, schedule an appointment at Arandas Auto Service DG in Gastonia, North Carolina.

We’ll then provide the necessary repairs to get you back on the road.
Knowing the Warning Signs
Although pinpointing the exact cause without professional diagnostics can be challenging, there are some clues:
Loose Gas Cap: This is the most common and easily remedied cause. Tighten the cap and monitor the light. It may take a few miles for the system to reset.
Poor Spark Plugs: Malfunctioning spark plugs hinder engine starting and reduce performance.
Faulty Catalytic Converter: A damaged catalytic converter releases harmful emissions, impedes smog checks and can lead to reduced performance and overheating.
