The check engine light is a warning light that comes on if the computerized engine control system detects an engine performance or emissions problem. Also called the "malfunction indicator lamp" (MIL) or "Service Engine soon". It can come on for any of hundreds of different causes from any of the systems that the computer monitors. Some are very important and some not as serious.



Your first step is to have the computer scanned to retrieve the trouble codes that were set when the check engine light came on. Those codes will get you pointed in the right direction to find your problem. With a 1996 or newer and some 95 cars and you have an AutoZone in your area, they will read them for free.

The fan kicks in when the car reaches a certain temp. Try running it for a few minutes and keep your eye on it. If it doesn't run at all, could be a bad thermostat or simply a fuse.

Leaking coolant is an issue. Look at your radiator hoses. They should not be bulging, cracked, split, or dry rotted. If they are, they need replacing.

When a car reaches temp the thermostat tell the fan to start, and coolant starts circulation through the water jackets (little channels in the engine block). If this isn't happening, your car will over heat and engine damage will occur.
