There are 3 elements a combustion engine needs in order to work — air, fuel, and spark. A failure in any of these areas can lead to a decrease in performance or your vehicle not starting at all. When you’re having issues with the air delivery, you might get a P0171 check engine light code […]
Speed. Since the invention of the car, we’ve wanted to go faster. Knowing how fast our vehicle is traveling is an essential part of driving, not only for safety but also for the efficient operation of critical systems like the ABS. Your vehicle speed sensor is the key here. It’s the component that measures vehicle […]
Every gasoline engine needs three things to work — fuel, spark, and compression. When one or more of these elements are missing, you will experience issues. Or, like in the case of an ignition system failure, you’ll also get a check engine light code on the dash. The particular code we’ll be talking about is […]

Today, check engine light codes, like the P0193, make DIY diagnosis possible. Such codes allow you to pinpoint the system that is at fault, order the […]
Trouble codes related to automatic transmissions are often the most dreaded ones. Not only are transmissions difficult to reach, but they are generally integrated systems that are the complete opposite of DIY-friendly. Even then, some transmission check engine light codes are worse than others. The P700 code we’ll cover today is arguably one of the […]
Introducing trouble codes ushered in a new era of DIY mechanics. Along with the OBD II system, it gives car owners a comprehensive way of diagnosing vehicle issues, helping them avoid premium dealership service pricing. The P0100 code is one of those. It’s a fairly common code that has to do with your mass airflow […]
Sensors are everywhere in modern vehicles. Which is great, until one of them fails. At that point, you’ll most likely get a check engine light code on your dash. The P0121 is one of the many sensor-related trouble codes you might see as a car owner. In this particular case, the code is related to […]
