I recently bought a used Vauxhall Corsa and the check engine light came on. I'm not sure what it could be, as the car seems to be running fine. What are some possible causes for the check engine light and how can I troubleshoot it?
ReplyHi Michelle, the check engine light could be triggered by a variety of issues, such as a loose gas cap, a faulty oxygen sensor, or a misfiring engine. To troubleshoot, you can start by checking if the gas cap is tightened properly. If that doesn't solve the issue, you may need to have a mechanic run a diagnostic check to determine the exact cause.
Hey Michelle, I had the same issue with my Vauxhall Corsa and it turned out to be a faulty oxygen sensor. The best course of action would be to take it to a mechanic who has the necessary tools to diagnose the issue accurately. They may also advise you to replace the sensor, which can be a bit pricey, but it's important to get it fixed to prevent further damage to your car.
