Engine Icon Warning Light On - Help
Friday, December 23, 2005 5:57 PM
I have a Canadian Gauge Cluster and the icon thats shaped like a little engine (on the right side of the gauges) just came on and won't go out.

It's a yellow color.

I did wash the car today and also have had a new amp/subs/cap put in but that was almost 2 weeks ago and I have had no problems.

All of my fluids are fine. This sucks - I was so happy to get the car clean today and it pulled this crap while I was on my way to show it off to a friend of mine...

Any ideas?

Thanks!

PS - Is AutoZone the place that reads the codes for free?

Thanks, I'll post this in there and the Mod can figure out which one to delete.

You're probably right though.

anyways!

Go have your code read, find out what it is and see if it's just something simple or something more dire.

Autozone does it for free I believe.

It's the most common code on newer cars.
It shows up as an evap leak if the cap is loose.

yeah the gas cap needs to be tight. because the gas tank is supposed to be pressureized.

hmm someone has to be pretty lazy or in a really big hurry to not tighten their gas cap.

but I suppose it can happen. Good call guys.
