Will the engine warning light on the Geely Boyue turn off by itself?

If the engine warning light is on, you can follow these steps to handle it: First, check whether the engine is running normally, whether there are problems such as shaking, black smoke, or difficulty starting. If there are, try not to start the engine again. Especially note that if the red light is on, do not start the engine again. If the engine is running normally and the car can be driven, please go to a service station as soon as possible to find out the cause. The service station can easily read the fault code by connecting a portable diagnostic device, obtain fault information, and carry out targeted repairs. If the engine is running normally, the owner can also try gently plugging in various wiring harness connectors, as it may be caused by a loose connection somewhere, or repeatedly turning the key to the ON position to see if the light can be turned off. Generally speaking, the reasons for the engine warning light to turn on mainly include the following seven: Sensor failure: The sensors mentioned here include water temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or the signal is interrupted, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, and the engine warning light will turn on. Fuel quality issues: If fuel and engine oil are not added according to the manufacturer's requirements, it may cause engine wear and trigger the warning light. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture can lead to engine carbon deposits or knocking. When the oxygen sensor detects this and reports it to the ECU, the warning light will turn on as a warning. Spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, and fuel line blockage can all cause poor combustion of the engine's air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging issues: The intake turbocharging pipeline and turbocharger can also cause the engine warning light to turn on. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leakage, high oil consumption, reduced power, metal noise, and blue or black smoke from the exhaust pipe. Intake issues: If there is a problem with the car's intake, it may cause the engine pipeline to become blocked, and in severe cases, the engine warning light will turn on. If the air filter is not clean and not regularly cleaned, it can lead to intake problems. Exhaust issues: Exhaust faults can also cause the engine warning light to turn on. The rear oxygen sensor, three-way catalytic converter, exhaust camshaft, and bearing faults are all causes of exhaust problems, with the three-way catalytic converter being the most common. Using leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-containing lubricant additives, physical damage to the three-way catalytic converter, and fuel supply system failures can easily cause three-way catalytic converter faults. Anti-theft system failure: If the car's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions, or if the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can also cause the engine to fail to work properly, and the engine warning light will turn on.
