Why does the car engine fault light come on when the engine is not started?
1 Answers
When the car's engine is not started and the engine fault light is on, this is a normal self-check, indicating that the engine is not yet working. Before the car is ignited, the car will enter a self-check state, and this light (the engine fault light) will come on. After the car starts normally, the light will turn off. Additional information: 1. The engine fault light is the one on the dashboard that looks a bit like a pipe from Super Mario. If you drive normally and maintain the car regularly, the engine generally won't have major issues. 2. If the engine fault light remains on after the vehicle starts, it indicates a problem with the engine's working condition. Possible causes include poor fuel quality, carbon buildup in the engine, or clogged fuel lines. It is advisable to visit a car repair shop as soon as possible or, if the car is still under warranty, go to a 4S shop for a prompt inspection.
