Radiator service, the basics
Does your stomach drop when your check engine light goes on. An on board computer continuously monitors the various systems that operate our cars; warning lights, such as the check engine light, illuminate when the computer receives a signal that something is amiss with one of those systems. It can be a challenge to determine the problem since the check engine light can indicate any one of a number of issues. Experts strongly recommend that you have your car checked by a certified repair technician as soon as possible whenever your check engine light goes on. Even if your car appears to be all right, ignoring the problem could lead to engine failure or some other form of system failure.
