What are the reasons for the engine warning light in the Fit?

The reasons for the engine warning light in the Fit include: 1. Poor combustion state; 2. Engine knocking; 3. Poor fuel quality; 4. Dirty engine cylinder interior with accumulated carbon deposits; 5. The computer cannot obtain engine data. Taking the Fit 2021 1.5L CVT Trend Edition as an example: The car is equipped with a 1.5L 131 horsepower L4 naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 96 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 155 Nm. The body dimensions of the Fit 2021 1.5L CVT Trend Edition are 4109mm in length, 1694mm in width, and 1537mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2530mm.
My Honda Fit also had the warning light come on before, which really made me nervous. When the engine light comes on, it's mostly due to sensor issues, especially components like the catalytic converter or oxygen sensors that are prone to problems. Another time I found out it was because of using poor-quality gasoline, which caused incomplete combustion and triggered the warning due to excessive exhaust emissions. Aging spark plugs and faulty ignition coils often cause false alarms too, not to mention carbon buildup affecting the air-fuel ratio. The scariest is when there's a fuel line blockage or abnormal fuel injector operation - it literally makes the engine gasp for air. My advice is to pull over immediately for inspection, and most importantly, get the trouble codes read at a repair shop. Don't be like my colleague who stubbornly kept driving until the car broke down halfway, ending up with 2000+ yuan in extra repair costs. Remember to regularly clean the throttle body and use gas from reputable stations - it really saves a lot of trouble.
