2005 Is300 Engine Light

[tgjonaj]

Hi,

Quick question-

This morning I started my 2005 is300 and noticed the engine light was on and also (track) was flashing. Has this happened to anyone? If so does anyone know what it mean? Please help

Thanks

we won't know what caused your CEL and TRAC lights to come on until you get the codes read.

Autozone will read them for free. Get the codes read and post them up here so we can better tell you what may be the problem.

Most times it is emissions related. Start with the things you can check, like you gas cap. Make sure it is not loose.

For the time being the car is in "limp mode" when those two are on.

Your 2005 should be under warranty too, so if you can get it there, take it to the dealer to read and fix if necessary. Most times it is emissions related.
