Expert Engine Repair Services
Engine Won't Start
If your engine doesn't start, it might mean:
- Low or dead battery
- Corroded or loose battery cables
- Ignition switch failure
- Defective fuel pump
- Clogged fuel filter
- Starter motor relay failure
If the engine clicks but doesn't crank, then it's typically a battery issue. If it cranks but doesn't start, then it is usually a sign that there is a problem with the fuel or ignition systems.
Engine Overheating
An overheating engine is most likely due to low coolant levels. Frequent overheating can cause serious and pricey damage to engines. If your engine continues to overheat regardless of how much coolant you are putting into it, it might mean:
- The coolant system is leaking or damaged
- Faulty thermostat
- The cooling fan is malfunctioning
- Broken radiator hose
- Defective radiator cap
A cracked head or blown head gasket may also be causing your engine to overheat. White exhaust smoke is usually an indication that there's a problem with your engine's cooling system and may require service immediately.
Check Engine Light
The check engine light is designed to light up whenever a fault is detected in any of the sensors attached to the emission, engine, or powertrain controls. Although useful, it can often be a source of frustration for drivers because it fails to indicate the nature of the problem.
The service engine light could be notifying you about:
- Loose or missing gas cap
- Spark plugs or wires are damaged
- Electronic control module failure
- Defective coil packs
- Emissions control faulty
- Fuel quality low
