The blankety - blanket "check engine light" or CEL or MIL(same thing) is the most idiotic of all idiot lights.
Its presence is mandated by the EPA - when on, a problem may or may not exist; the codes should be read, then definite action can occur, if necessary..
Many state that the Autozone can read the codes for free ; where as the dealers want $$ to $$$ for this!! This makes no sense - why can not the dealers read the codes for a low(reasonable) figure instead of being so blindly greedy ??
I believe it is far better to assure that all service is up to date.
I am positive the manufacturers can do a lot better, particularly as expensive as cars are today.
