CODE READ
When the "check engine" light flashes
on your dashboard, it generally involves the vehicle's electronic control system. This is composed of a series of sensors (throttle,oxygen, knock, etc.) that monitor the various engine parameters; a computer that monitors the signals from these sensors and calculates any necessary adjustments; and a variety of actuators that carry out the adjustments. Typically, if the computer detects an electrical problem in the system, a warning light will come on in the instrument cluster to alert the driver. Concurrently, the computer will store in its memory a numeric code that identifies the specific electrical circuit in which the problem lies. By checking this diagnostic code, the technician can quickly identify the problem.
