A Closer Look At The “Check Engine Light”
“Check Engine Light” is actually a misnomer – a more accurate description is a Malfunction Indicator Lamp, or MIL. That’s because that one indicator is used for more systems than just the engine, including the transmission, the emissions system, electrical sensors and modules, and more. When there’s a fault in one of the systems monitored, the Check Engine Light is illuminated on your dashboard. It’s that little amber-colored light that’s crudely shaped like an engine. Your Tahoe, Traverse, Impala, or other Chevrolet model might also have a warning message displayed on the dash. The Check Engine Light can illuminate for dozens of reasons. To identify the root cause of your Check Engine Light, a comprehensive diagnostic scan and inspection is required before repairs can commence.
