Nissan Check Engine Light On Near Kennesaw GA

When your Nissan check engine light comes on, your vehicle is trying to tell you something and needs your attention. What is it trying to tell you, though? Find out in this guide to your Nissan's check engine light.

What Does It Mean When the Nissan Check Engine Light Comes On?

Schedule Service


If your Nissan check engine light is on, it's important to get it checked out as soon as possible. The light can indicate a variety of problems, some of which can be serious.

Here are some of the most common causes of a check engine light on a Nissan:

  • Engine misfire. This is when one or more of your engine's cylinders is not firing properly. This can cause a loss of power, increased emissions, and poor fuel economy.
  • Plugged catalytic converter. The catalytic converter is a device that helps to reduce emissions.. If it becomes plugged, it can cause the check engine light to come on.
  • Bad O2 sensor. The O2 sensor measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas. If it goes bad, it can cause the check engine light to come on.
  • Fuel injector problem. The fuel injectors deliver fuel to the engine. If one or more of them is not working properly, it can cause the check engine light to come on.
  • Mass airflow sensor problem. The mass airflow sensor measures the amount of air that is entering the engine. If it goes bad, it can cause the check engine light to come on.

If your check engine light is on, you can have it scanned at Town Center Nissan.  The scanner will read the code that is causing the light to come on, which will help you to determine the problem.

Once you know the problem,  trust Town Center Nissan to help you resolve it.  The cost of repairs will vary depending on the severity of the problem.  It's important to get your check engine light checked out as soon as possible. Ignoring the light can lead to more serious problems down the road.

Don't Ignore the Check Engine Light

You might be tempted to ignore your Nissan's check engine light when it comes on. However, that could be costly and dangerous.

The check engine light (MIL) on your Nissan is a warning light that indicates a problem with your vehicle's emissions system. The MIL may come on steady or blinking, and it can mean different things depending on the situation.

Steady MIL: A steady MIL typically means that there is a problem with your vehicle's emissions system, but it is not a serious problem. You can usually continue driving your vehicle, but you should schedule a service appointment with a Nissan dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and repaired.

Blinking MIL: A blinking MIL is a more serious warning, and it indicates that there is a problem with your vehicle's emissions system that could cause damage to your vehicle or put your safety at risk. If you see the MIL blinking, you should pull over to a safe location as soon as possible and turn off your engine. Do not restart your engine until the MIL has turned off. You should then schedule a service appointment with a Nissan dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and repaired.

If you see the check engine light come on, the first thing you should do is check the gas cap to make sure it is properly tightened. A loose gas cap can sometimes trigger the MIL to come on. If the gas cap is tight and the MIL is still on, you should schedule a service appointment with a Nissan dealer to have the problem diagnosed.

The Town Center Nissan service department is here to help you with any automotive needs you may have. Our team of factory trained technicians are experts in diagnosing and repairing Nissan vehicles, and we can help you get your vehicle back on the road quickly and safely.

To schedule a service appointment, please call us at (770) 423-9691 or visit our website at www.towncenternissan.com. We look forward to hearing from you!

Here are some additional tips for dealing with a check engine light:

  • Do not ignore the light. Even if the light is not flashing, it is still important to have the problem diagnosed and repaired as soon as possible.
  • Do not drive your vehicle if the light is flashing. This could cause damage to your vehicle or put your safety at risk.
  • Keep a record of the MIL codes. If you have the MIL codes, you can give them to your service technician when you bring your vehicle in for service. This will help them diagnose the problem more quickly.
  • Ask your service technician about the problem. Once the problem has been diagnosed, ask your service technician to explain the problem to you and what was done to fix it. This will help you understand what happened and why.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your Nissan vehicle is properly maintained and that you stay safe on the road.

If your check engine light is on, it means your Nissan is trying to communicate with you. It's best not to ignore your check engine light to ensure any small issues don't turn into larger problems down the road!

Is your Nissan's check engine light trying to tell you something? Head to Town Center Nissan service department to have your vehicle diagnosed to ensure everything is running as it should.
