Understanding Reduced Power Light Indicators

Check Engine Light
Common signs of failure:

  • Decreased fuel efficiency
  • Rough idling or misfiring
  • Loss of power during acceleration
  • Engine running rough or shaking
Typical service schedule: Have the code read immediately when light appears. Regular maintenance every 30,000 miles can prevent many check engine light issues.

Battery Light
Common signs of failure:

  • Dim headlights or interior lights
  • Clicking sound when trying to start
  • Electrical components working slowly
  • Need to jump-start frequently
Typical service schedule: Battery inspection every 6 months; replacement typically needed every 3-5 years.

Oil Pressure Light
Common signs of failure:

  • Engine making knocking sounds
  • Burning oil smell
  • Engine running louder than usual
  • Oil spots under vehicle
Typical service schedule: Oil changes every 5,000-7,500 miles for conventional oil; 7,500-10,000 miles for synthetic oil.

Temperature Warning Light
Common signs of failure:

  • Steam from under hood
  • Sweet or burning coolant smell
  • Temperature gauge reading high
  • Coolant puddles under vehicle
Typical service schedule: Coolant flush every 30,000 miles or 2 years; regular coolant level checks monthly.

Transmission Warning Light
Common signs of failure:

  • Delayed or rough shifting
  • Grinding or shaking during gear changes
  • Slipping transmission
  • Burning smell while driving
Typical service schedule: Transmission fluid change every 30,000-60,000 miles; inspection every 15,000 miles.

ABS Warning Light
Common signs of failure:

  • Brake pedal pulsating
  • Increased stopping distance
  • Brake pedal becoming hard to press
  • Squealing or grinding noise when braking
Typical service schedule: ABS system inspection every 15,000 miles; brake fluid flush every 2 years.
