When the Chery E5 is powered on, the engine malfunction indicator light will illuminate during the vehicle's self-check upon starting. If the engine is functioning normally, the light will automatically turn off after the engine starts. Principle of the engine malfunction light: The engine malfunction signal is issued by the engine control unit (ECU), which governs all electronic components of the engine, including the electronic throttle, fuel injectors, alternator, fuel pump, etc., covering systems such as intake, exhaust, fuel, ignition, and timing. If the engine malfunction light illuminates, it indicates an abnormality in a specific system. To determine the exact issue, a diagnostic scanner must be used, as each vehicle brand has its own unique fault codes. Persistent engine malfunction light: If the engine malfunction light remains illuminated and does not turn off, it signifies that the engine parameters have deviated from normal. Excessive carbon buildup is a common cause of such parameter changes. If this issue is not addressed, the engine's combustion state cannot be adjusted back to normal, and the malfunction light will remain on without automatically disappearing.
