I have a tokunbo Toyota camry 03 that I just started using. Everything is going on smoothly with it. Over the weekend I notice the picture below on the dashboard after washing the car. What could this mean and what can I do to make it dissappear. Thanks

Scan the vehicle, it could be anything, failing spark plugs, oxygen sensor, ignition/exhaust issues... 1 Like |

avurlerby: Did you by any means pour water on the engine area? |
Re: Please What Do I Need To Do If My Car Shows This by Kingdemu: 1:45pm On Sep 08, 2020 |
It is called the "check engine light". The light can come up as a result of a minor issue, such as when your tank cap is not well covered, or it could mean something more serious. So the best thing to do is to get a scanning tool and scan the car and post the results here. There are experts here who can guide you accordingly. Consider the guy who asked you to just change your engine as your worst enemy. Meanwhile, have you noticed anything unusual with the way the car operates? 3 Likes |

avurlerby:Pls next time avoid pouring water on your engine. Since it is obvious you do not have a scanner, locate any auto diagnostic center close to you and tell them to run a scan on the car. Is the car operating normally? 1 Like |
Re: Please What Do I Need To Do If My Car Shows This by proclinician: 3:41pm On Sep 08, 2020 |
avurlerby: Get any shop that performs on board auto diagnosis. They will scan your engine and tell you what's up. |
Re: Please What Do I Need To Do If My Car Shows This by avurlerby(m): 3:45pm On Sep 08, 2020 |
Kingdemu: Yes it is, I gave it to people specificalised in washing engines to wash it for me |
Re: Please What Do I Need To Do If My Car Shows This by avurlerby(m): 3:46pm On Sep 08, 2020 |
proclinician: Thanks. But can it have any implications. I'm a novice with cars |
Re: Please What Do I Need To Do If My Car Shows This by proclinician: 3:59pm On Sep 08, 2020 |
avurlerby: The scanning alone has zero implications and you can do it yourself (I have a personal scanner). It's the best way to know what the fault is instead of blind trial and error. 1 Like |

avurlerby:Yes, the check engine light that came up is trying to tell you that something is not right somewhere. Just run the scan first to be sure 1 Like |

Kayodedavies101: And the dealer will not touch it too, he'll return it to foreigners who sold him to it asap.... The foreigner will return it to the manufacturer asap.... Maybe manufacturer will then return it to Satan asap. It's not by force to reply queries on NL sha, best keep silent and be considered smart
