My "check engine" light is on. It's solid, not blinking. What could the problem be?
Also, randomly while driving my ABS & Parking Brake light will come on. The parking brake is not pulled up, ever. I drive an automatic.
I am quite clueless when it comes to cars...
Any ideas on what could be causing these problems? Thanks guys, I appreciate all the help that is given.
I had the same thing happen. The first thing I would do is check that the gas cap is securely on. Then wait a couple of days to see if the light goes off.
If you live in the US, you can take your car to an Auto Zone store and they will read off the diagnostic code that is causing the check engine lamp to come on. Once you have that then you can decide your next course of action.
Hope this is of some help.
