why is my check engine light on after oil change
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Your check engine light coming on after an oil change could be due to a few reasons. First, it might be as straightforward as the oil cap or dipstick not being properly secured, causing the engine to detect a problem. Second, if the oil used is of the wrong viscosity or if the oil level is too high or too low, it can trigger the sensor. Additionally, any accidental disconnection or damage to the engine's sensors during the oil change can activate the light. Ensure to recheck these components or consult a mechanic who can run a diagnostic to pinpoint the exact issue. Sometimes, the light might just need a reset after maintenance, but it's crucial to address any potential underlying issues to prevent long-term damage to your engine.
