Q
can low freon cause check engine light
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Yes, low Freon in your vehicle's air conditioning (AC) system alone typically does not trigger the check engine light (CEL). The CEL is primarily associated with the vehicle's emissions system and engine management. If your AC system is low on Freon, it might indicate a leak or a malfunction within the AC system itself, but these issues don't directly communicate with the engine's computer (ECU) in a way that would illuminate the CEL. However, if the leak or malfunction indirectly affects engine performance, emissions, or any sensor readings related to them, then it's possible—though less common. It's important to address both low Freon in your AC system for comfort and any illuminated CEL for potential engine-related issues, consulting a professional mechanic for accurate diagnostics and repair.
