The Check Engine Light, or Service Engine Soon Light  in your car or truck can come on for hundreds of different reasons.  Some are of extreme urgency, while others are rather benign in nature.  For this reason, if your check engine light is illuminated, you should plan to bring your vehicle to the experts at West Michigan Transmissions to get it checked out.

Your automobile is equipped with an on-board computer which monitors dozens of systems in your car.  From the catalytic converter, to the pressure in your fuel tank, your car or truck has many sensors that are constantly acquiring data and sending that information back to the computer for analysis.  When the computer interprets the data and detects a malfunction, the check engine light is triggered to alert the driver that the vehicle should be taken to a licensed repair facility for diagnostics.
